[talk-latam] Fwd: [OSM-talk] Updates to DigitalGlobe Imagery Layers

[Marco Antonio]

Hola,

Kevin Bullock de Maxar informó que existen nuevas imagenes satelitales,
MAXAR, que suplantan en los editores y son más actualizadas que Digital
Globe Premium/Standard. Digital Globe Premium/Standard ya no existirán
desde el 1ro de Julio, osea hoy. Dice que se renovarán con mas constancia
haciendo el mapeo más actual.

****Hay que tener cuidado con estas imagenes****, y utilizar las trazas GPS
de OSM o propias para acomodar las imagen a los datos... revisé en varias
locaciones de Bolivia y hay varios desplazamientos, sobretodo cuando hay
montañas...

Abrazos,

Marco Antonio

DigitalGlobe, now Maxar [1], is transitioning the OpenStreetMap imagery
endpoints (from “DigitalGlobe Standard” to “Maxar Standard”; and from
“DigitalGlobe Premium” to “Maxar Premium”). OSM users should see content
parity between the old and the new layers by June 30, 2019. Starting July
1, 2019, there will be only two Maxar layers available from within the OSM
editors – labeled with Beta.

Our new imagery services use http/2 protocol. Please note that there are
some known speed issues with the JOSM editor. A JOSM plugin for http/2
support is expected before the end of July (ticket #17861). In the
meantime, increasing the concurrent connections (e.g. to 20) will help. iD
editor already supports http/2.

The good news: imagery will be more recent and more frequently updated with
our latest Maxar mosaic content. We hope that our improved production
processes (bundle block adjustment, atmospheric compensation, continuous
updates, etc.) will benefit OSM contributors.

As always, thanks to everyone within OSM for all your support and feedback.
Shout out to the maintainers and contributors for iD and JOSM who have been
fantastic to work with. Look for Maxar at State of the Map and State of the
Map US; we will be attending and presenting more information on this new
image service. And please feel free to send us feedback. Happy editing!
