[GeoNode-users] Mapquest background not available in GeoNode

[Charles Cossé]

Hello, just a quick note regarding satellite imagery, fwiw;  as most
probably know, earlier this year Google updated their public satellite
imagery and it's virtually cloud-free now.  I was working on an OpenLayers
project that used MapQuest's satellite imagery when they suddenly changed
their policy about 1 week before my project was due to complete.  I solved
it at the last minute by controlling a Google maps satellite layer from
OpenLayers.  There's an example of how to do this in the OpenLayers
examples.  You can also see my implementation HERE
<http://dev.asymptopia.org/pacmap> and on GitHub
<https://github.com/ccosse/parks>.
