*Nemanja,* Thank you for all the hard work. I am not a huge fan of using the Wiki as a basis as it will require a lot of work to keep it updated and if Alice Springs is updated, who will notice?
Unless we could visualise the latest imagery by dates automatically, I would suggest that you just need to pop back and visit quarterly. Perhaps we could take a snapshot of tiles in specific place.to check for variances? Also on another note, can you let your team know that most streams and rivers are intermittent outside the east coast Great Dividing Range and coastal areas and unless it declared a river, then it is probably a stream. A lot of Australia will appear to have stream lines but in reality will only be streams for exceedingly short periods after a thunderstorm. There are a few rivers being added into OSM in the desert by the team that probably haven't seen water for 8 years as permanent and that you need to add fords or bridges to existing highways.
