Hi Kevin,
Thanks for this, it’s fantastic. The existing Bing and Mapbox imagery in the
area is pretty high-quality but it’s never bad to have additional options. I’ll
add this to the tasks we’ve opened so far.
Quick question: do you have a bounding box for the overall extent of the
imagery? I’m running off a poor connection here so it’s a little inconvenient
to eyeball it myself.
Best,
Robert
