Fresh, high-resolution imagery lets mappers add more up-to-date, detailed data to OpenStreetMap.
In November 2014, DigitalGlobe released 475,000 km2 of imagery of Cameroon in response to a polio outbreak and an influx of refugees fleeing conflict in the Central African Republic. Dozens of mappers responded by adding 128,865 km of roads and 1,421,018 buildings to OpenStreetMap.
Use OSM Analytics to visualize mapping in Cameroon since November 2014.
