Andrew, A huge thanks to you as the images are so clear, you can see which way horses and cattle are facing, sheep are however a little more difficult. There is a huge opportunity for mappers to map the Adelaide Hills and KI and as it's really rare to have access to this level of detail so have a play and do a couple of farms or paddocks.
If you are using ID, visit a town called Lobethal https://www.openstreetmap.org/edit#map=16/-34.9003/138.8654 and enter the following custom background URL https://cogeoxyz.b-cdn.net/46b53084a82973a36c0f57a1d5446c605d00ed851f11a6f5ca7c75db/{zoom}/{x}/{y}.jpg as there is an issue with default background layer. If you a re using JOSM use the background above for the area north and south of Lobethal Ewen On Mon, 9 Mar 2020 at 17:07, Andrew Harvey <[email protected]> wrote: > You may have seen the SA bushfire imagery made available to OSM from ARA. > They put out a survey to the people who downloaded their data, I've > forwarded my responses here for full visibility for anyone interested. > > ** What data did you actually download ?
