Yes, we raised money to buy imagery, in the first HOT activation. Yahoo imagery only covered the southeast part of Gaza. If we had a mechanism to request imagery from providers, we certainly would have. The situation is very different today for OSM. You only need to look at the Ecuador response to see the willingness of imagery providers to help when there is a need.
