Hi Michael
Their ownership actually changed again (well again again) just back in 2022 Nearmap - Wikipedia
Now if this is good or bad is an open question.

PS: seems as if @aharvey talked to them in 2020 (before the latest owner change) to get permission for a humanitarian event, so there is potentially still some connection there.
PPS: their coverage area seems to much larger that back in 2011, so there might be other opportunities there.
