Hi Jeff, Welcome. > What servers are used for the OSM main site and demos? You'll find some OSM infrastructure information here and at related links on the wiki. http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Servers Hosting and serving large collections of aerial imagery is outside the normal goals of OpenStreetMap, though OSMers certainly find aerial imagery useful when it is licensed appropriately. OpenAerialMap.org, on the other hand, is exactly the place for large collections of aerial imagery. OpenAerialMap has been "rebooting" since last July and may even come back on line. It ran as a demo for about nine months, then suffered from too much success, as requests came in to host larger and more data sets. Those with an interest, and with server / bandwidth resources, should absolutely get involved. There is an OpenAerialMap workshop at State of the Map next week. http://stateofthemap.org/schedules/friday/ _______________________________________________ Talk-ca mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-ca
