Arlete, I transmitted your request to our contact at Spot Image earlier today, just after receiving it.
But, from my understanding of how the Disaster Charter works, frankly, I would not expect other post-disaster imagery to be available. We already know that several attempts had been made, that could not complete because of cloud coverage, before it was possible to obtain the scene that is currently available. On the other hand, with the SpotMaps that is currently available, it should already be possible to improve significantly the OSM base map of Bom Jardim. It is from 2008-2009, and, from what I've heard, its geometrical accuracy is generally considered to be good. I don't understand very well what makes you consider it "difficult to vectorize/trace details" (according to your PDF, which is too large to be sent to the mailing list). It's probably because you are a new JOSM user. Something that many new users (including myself when I was one) do not find at first is that, if you click with the right mouse button on your "SPOT_2008-2009" layer, you get a menu where you can "Change resolution" to adapt it to your current frame of view. If you do this when the scale bar in the upper left corner is around 100 m long, you should be able to see the image at full resolution (2.5 m I think, which is fine to trace roads and many streets). Also, due to a mysterious particularity with the current SpotMaps WMS server and its access from JOSM, if you see overlapping tiles, it is better to change JOSM projection method to "WGS 84" (code EPSG:4326), in Modify / Preferences / Map projection. (And then, delete, and reload the layer). >From what I remember from mapping after Alagoas floods, the primary highways sourced from IBGE can probably be considered not to be very accurate at large scale, as can be seen when comparing them to satellite imagery. So do not hesitate to fix them. You can find a JOSM guide to beginners on: http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/JOSM/Guide The Brazilian OSM community can probably help you better than me if you encounter other difficulties, and more generally for mapping this area. I copy this message to the Brazilian OSM mailing list. Best wishes, and warm welcome to OpenStreetMap. Jean-Guilhem PS: I was not aware of your journal before today. I think that Claudio had mentioned on jabber that Bom Jardim had been cut off after the floods and landslides.
