Re: [Qgis-user] Legally use image data from online services

[Stefan Ziegler]

Hi Andi

you can "buy" orthorectified satellite images (up to 0.3m resolution) from
NPOC at swisstopo. It can be cheap if you find images from the archive. The
people at NPOC are extremely helpful. You have to host / serve the images
as WMS yourself, though.

Stefan

Hi Luigi, 

Thanks for the hint. 

I had a look at their data - it is 10m spatial resolution - right? 

The data is easy to find and very new - but I am afraid that 10m spatial
resolution is not good enough for our purpose. Our requirement is 1m or
smaller spatial resolution. 

Thanks anyway, 

Andreas

Re: [Qgis-user] Legally use image data from online services

[Neumann, Andreas]

Hi Stefan, 

We are of course Swisstopo customers. But their newest images in our
area are from 2013 ;-( 

Our agricultural department is looking for newer aerial images/satellite
images from 2015 or 2016. They'd like a spatial resolution of 1m or even
smaller - if possible. 

The Pleiades satellite seems to provide fairly up-to-date and high-res
photos. 

Does someone know if MapBox or PlanetLabs provide a web service that can
be legally consumed within QGIS? It would have the advantage that they
have seamless coverage at farily high resolutions. 

I'll do more research. 

Thanks, 

Andreas

No direct news, I just had customers buying (or, rather, forced to)
those services.
All the best.

Hi Paolo, 

Do you have more information on that? A product link? Do they officially
allow access from any software when using a paid service? 

Thanks,

Swisstopo WMTS and WMS? Is the data not recent enough?
Did you have a look at all these satellite data companies like digital 
globe etc.?

The "Quick map services" plugin provides data from Google, Mapbox, ESRI,

use. Does someone know a similar service to Google, Mapbox or ESRI ArcGIS

Thank you for any hints you may have.

AFAIK Google will allow this use, with an appropriate (fairly expensive
AFAIK) licence.
All the best.
