Name: Rob Irwin Email: snowplant@gmail.com Location of imagery: local hard-drive Source of imagery: California Deptartment of Water Resources; Sacramento River Forum; US Army Corps of Engineers Short description of collection: The Sacramento River Forum administers a GIS which contains many gigs of aerial photography that was previously hosted by CASIL. We are looking for a place to put our imagery so it can be distributed publicaly, Also it would be nice for a tile service to display the aerials on our web map. Have you received approval for making this imagery available (yes/no)?: Yes, and no.

@robbitt Thanks. Couple quick questions in response:

Location of imagery: local hard-drive

How much imagery do you have?

Have you received approval for making this imagery available (yes/no)?: Yes, and no.

Can you explain more? If you have approval to agree to the following statement then we are good:

By submitting imagery to OpenAerialMap, you agree to place your imagery into the Open Imagery Network (OIN). All imagery contained in OIN is licensed CC-BY 4.0, with attribution as contributors of Open Imagery Network. All imagery is available to be traced in OpenStreetMap.

@smit1678 Thanks so much for getting back to me. Sorry this replay is so very late.

How much imagery do you have?* +/- 250GB
approval to use image* - very very likely. Some is our own, the rest is technically public data.

My organization - Sacramento River Forum - has an outreach and educational mandate. We were providing public access to our aerial photography through a state run service - which shut down quite unexpectedly. Since then, i have been looking for a way to 1) store the imagery in a secure server 2) provide http access to the imagery 3) provide a tiling service to display the imagery on web/desktop map software.
I was pointed toward OpenAerialMap as a potential solution.

@robbitt Cool, maybe it would be worthwhile to set up an OIN bucket? This can be any type of public file storage -- AWS S3, Google Cloud, Azure. Then you can manage that imagery but also make it available through OAM.
