Hi Thomas, Try speaking to Mikel Maron at Mapbox (and HOT) ([email protected]). Sometimes Mapbox can help out by procuring high resolution imagery for specific areas and adding it to the Mapbox Satellite layer accessible through JOSM.
If that doesn’t work I suggest you reach out to the U.S. State Department’s Mapgive: Imagery to the Crowd initiative (http://mapgive.state.gov/ittc/). Often they can secure existing imagery for you and/or procure custom imagery on request. You’ll probably need to prepare a specific AOI for all these requests. Good luck!
