Global has some satellite images images after the fire attributed to Google / Terra Bella (ex-Skybox). I believe they have in the past allowed imaging for open use before (Skybox For Good program) so may be able to do so here.

You might get some help from UrtheCast, as a Canadian company they might be willing to donate access to footage. https://www.urthecast.com Not sure that they can provide geo-referenced shots, but any info might be of use. Their cameras are fixed on ISS, so any orbital software/website will tell you if/when they have near passes. They also have a live feed: https://www.urthecast.com/live Cheers, Simon. _______________________________________________ Talk-ca mailing list [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> https://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-ca
