[OSM-talk] Custom Imagery

[Kate Chapman]

Hi Alex,

I've bought imagery previously for Padang from a DigitalGlobe
reseller. It was delivered as a GeoTiff. I then used gdal2tiles.py to
tile it to be used in JOSM.

You may want to recheck the areas you are interested, Bing appears to
have updated quite a bit of imagery in Indonesia recently.

Best,

-Kate
