Hello Mustafa - 1. where are you writing from ?
2. cheap or free is not the same. depending on the context under which your project is to take place, you may be ok with "cheap" data, or free data, or you may be ok with paying a lot. but free would be great if the source you are fetching imagery is public. 3. I would be very interested in knowing the connection which brought you from Stradivari to sedimentary analysis of rivers, as I am aware of some research groups in Italy who are investigating about Stradivari having initiated their quest from applied hydrology...possibly there is a link between your activity and the groups I am talking about. I don't want to get off-topic, so we may talk privately about this. 4. Worldwind (worldwind.arc.nasa.gov) or the OpenAerialMap project (openaerialmap.org) could be some starting points for your imagery, while we wait in Italy to better define terms of use for more accurate local sources (you could still check www.atlanteitaliano.it for one of the main national sources - but you won't be allowed to use those data without a commercial agreement which is clearly detailed in the web site). As you mention Cremona, from www.regione.lombardia.it you can also access (for view purposes only, as far as "free" goes, other aerial imagery of the Cremona area or its surroundings. 5. Please keep us posted on the developments of your research: if you can give us news by october, we may cite your experience in upcoming events on awareness raising on free/open source geogrpahic software (and data).
