Aah.  Was curious since it looks like over Tulsa it's the same ~3 year old
vintage as Bing, but out of alignment.

It says on the imagery api website that the average is like ~2 years, but
some places are updated twice a year. So depends on your location.

Dear Kevin,

Thank you for the information. I just checked, and I saw that at my JOSM 
the two DigitalGlobe layers, Premium and Standard, are already 
available. I just have to open the JOSM's Imagery Preferences dialog and 
activate them.


The Premium layer is brighter and it seems that it has got a higher 
resolution. I compared them with the Bing and Mapbox layers for the 
places on the North shore of the Black sea which I know and which I map 
currently, and the DigitalGlobe layers are more recent for these 
particular places. I see on them buildings which were in fact 
constructed, but yet absent on other layers.


Thank you again.

With best regards,
Oleksiy

Kevin,
Thanks to you and DigitalGlobe. I'm looking at a Bing image of Atenas Costa
Rica - too many clouds to be useable. DigitalGlobe is beautiful!

Access is free (no payment, complimentary, no subscription) for all registered 
OSM editors for the purposes of improving OSM.

Just so that it is more clear, do we have to subscribe(paid model) to have

like Bing and Mapbox already have done and provide this service for free(of 
course in the context of editing for OSM)?
