Hi OSM ZA, Updated: http://aerial.openstreetmap.org.za/
Contains new imagery (collect from CD:NGI during November 2012) and I've finally filled in most of the missing areas. Percentage of the imagery captured in the year: - 2012: 17.8% - 2011: 27.6% - 2010: 21.1% - 2009: 28.8% - 2008: 4.7% The aerial imagery (as supplied) is 3004 GigaBytes and made up of 45454 tiled GeoTIFF files. Combined they would make an image: 3256402 x 2875186 pixels or 9.3 Million Megapixel ;-) The imagery is available in JOSM and Potlatch2 as a background layer using the "South Africa: CD:NGI Aerial" preset. Please remember to add the "source=ngi-aerial" tag when using the imagery. In Potlatch2 this can be done by pressing "B" when the new imagery is set as the background. There are 3 errors I am aware of: - Black missing strip near Victoria West, NC - Black missing square near Villiers, FS - 2 Black thin strips, 1: just east of Mooi River, KZN and 2: just west of Greytown, KZN The errors will get fixed when I have a chance, but are not currently a high priority. The imagery should also finally be moved to a beefier/faster server within the next 24 hours.
