When doing Humanitarian OpenStreetMap I notice that the imagery is often from Maxar. Did OSM have some kind of deal with them, or maybe it was a donation?

- easyKL 3y agoThey stopped sharing: as of July 2023, Maxar has revoked API access to its imagery for OSM editors. https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Maxar https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Maxar
- globular-toast 3y agoOh, that sucks. I've been using Maxar as a default for many years now. About ten years ago we had much higher resolution imagery from Bing. I know because I mapped things that are not visible on current imagery like fences and poles.
