Wow, really cool.
Is there a TMS/WMS type URL for looking at any of it?
I am not sure how it works, in reviewing the site it looks like they
provide the imagery and we would find a place to host it for use in tracing.

Hello
I've been talking with the Google Crisis Response team, and they have
confirmed:
* Imagery released under Skybox for Good can be digitized into OSM under
OSM's license.
* The attribution requirement can be fulfilled by attributing Skybox in
a given changeset and/or feature comment/tag. As well as noted on
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Contributors
* While it's not a requirement, interested to start conversation about
more robust attribution down the line, ala the dynamic attribution in
Google Maps (something like an API to view attribution for a particular
area, to integrate into web viewers)
* HOT is welcome to make additional requests.
They want to know the best place to formally let OSM know the above. If
the gist of the above sounds reasonable, I think the best place to
announce would be on legal-talk@
While we are working on the legal details, it would also be worthwhile
for us to test the suitability of the imagery for OSM tracing. Is the
geo-referencing and resolution fit for our purposes?
Cheers
Mikel

Hi list,
Google (through their acquisition of skybox) have released some
aerial imagery under the Cc-by licence:
http://www.engadget.com/2014/10/26/skybox-for-good/
Can someone just remind me - are we able to use this in
OpenStreetMap? If yes, please forward to the HOT mailing list as it
is of value to them.
Finally we should be very proud of what we as a community have
achieved. The work that we, HOT and those who have already made
aerial imagery available (bing, digital globe, etc) have achieved to
date is so significant that other big players are following in our
footsteps. This is a great day :-)
Best,
Rob
