I noticed recently an addition to the available Backgrounds in the iD Editor including: Ontario Orthophotography Mosaic 2018-2022 (RGB). I was wondering if there was consideration to also add the 2023-2027 version? It is available publicly as the 2018-2022, but has a vastly improved imagery for a large area of Ontario (most importantly to me, it covers my mapping area!).
If anyone has guidance on anywhere/anyone else to post this question to it would be appreciated.
The imagery sources available in iD and Josm are defined at GitHub - osmlab/editor-layer-index: A unified layer index for OSM editors.
I can try and submit it for you
Hi! I left it out at the time of adding the 2018-2022 layer since it was still documented as “coming soon”. I wasn’t sure if that meant the service would be intermittent, so we opted to leave it out for the time being.
I see it’s listed with the others now, I’d be happy to make a new PR for it!
And merged! It’ll still take a while to come to iD of course :)
