Harry,
Just to make it clear in my own mind - do we add the template to the
image page in the wiki - I've done that here as a test;

I think it's a great idea to have some more bing imagery example images in our
tagging docs e.g. the 'Highway Tag Africa' page. There's some copyright
concerns which might hold us back, but I think that would be a shame. I've just
added some thoughts to that discussion
http://forum.openstreetmap.org/viewtopic.php?id=23405 and linked a new wiki
template we can start using on image description pages: {{Bing image}}

Subject: Re: [HOT] Satellite imagery interpretation examples - looking for
suggestions
As the Mapbnox imagery doesn't seem good enough to illustrate the photos
I collected, I stumbled upon this post by Pieren:
"The answer is 'no' for a mass use of Bing screenshots but I think
there is some place for occasional and limited amount of images,
especially when it is used to illustrate how "to trace from their
imagery into OSM". (ideally, the uploaded images in the wiki should be
downgraded with JOSM lines, making the image reuse for other purposes
impossible)."
http://forum.openstreetmap.org/viewtopic.php?id=23405
Since I'm planning exactly that, i.e., composing new images containing
a photo and
a tagged satellite excerpt, and this for about two dozen pictures in
the Wiki only,
I have the strong hope this may go through with our legal team.
Please raise objections now.
Regards,

There are precious few photos in Wikimedia Commons showing forest roads
and hamlets in West Africa. I started to collect those I could localize
and
associate with a tag. Only primary roads so far. Some from DRC.

Some pictures on the Africa highways wiki page wouldn't hurt either.
Quite often, a road can look too narrow to be classified as
"unclassified",
so people put "path" on it. But that's in a lot of cases because the
treetop
makes it seem narrow, but at the bottom, it's wide enough for vehicles to
pass.

Blake,
I'm hoping you can come up with a way of sharing the screenshots on
these
subjects. As well as the wiki or LearnOSM article you develop, the basic
screenshots could be of enormous help for those who produce items on
twitter, facebook, press articles, slideshows for presentations etc..
Personally I'm currently attempting to work on a series of slides used
when delivering training at events, and I like to include screenshots
from
iD& JOSM and in each I like to have the scale visible.
There are many others on this mailing list with more experience on the
subject of sharing the information, but this could include a shared
folder
in GoogleDrive, or Dropbox.
Regards
Nick

Hi,
You might have read in a few emails I was hoping to put up some
satellite
imagery that shows things we often map in W. Africa.
Originally and still mainly, I wanted some examples of schools and roads
of different types.
I am open to any suggestions for things to include and if you find any
good examples with MapBox imagery please send them my way.
Or if you find something that you don't know what it is, please share it
here and we'll get it identified.
For users of iD, just center on the thing in question and then copy/past
the url from your web browser into an email.
JOSM users can click in the lower left corner of their window and a
location box will pop up, you can just copy/paste the url from that box
into
an email.
Cheers,
Blake
