Comment from GOwin
Hi there. I'm curious. Are you using GPX track logs *or* Birdseye imagery to trace features?
-
Comment from metaphysikhall
Hey.. GPX tracks are made in Basecamp, over Birdseye Imagery, then exported.

Comment from metaphysikhall
Unfortunately Bing Images used by iD has less detail over many spots in this locality, so I turn to Birdseye.

Can you direct me to a link to the Terms of Use for Birdeye imagery? I'm curious about their data licensing terms.

Comment from metaphysikhall
There are several versions of Birdseye depending on the country; I can't find their Terms of Use, just the Buy page here: https://buy.garmin.com/en-US/digital/maps/birdseye-satellite-imagery-subscription/prod70144.html
But it's quite strict though; I'm still on my free 1 year subscription. It only works on BaseCamp and you have to have a device connected to make a download. It's not even stored as common raster formats like .jpg.

Yes, many commercial imagery providers have very strict licenses. That's why I'm curious because they may have issues with the OpenStreetMap licensing.
Can you tell me about your workflow?

For now it's just that: Tracing over on BaseCamp then exporting GPX files for low-res spots in iD. Otherwise I just go directly to iD. I've yet to try JOSM or Potlach. :D
Ahh. I'll check out the forum sometime. Happy New Year! -
