[mapserver-users] purchasing satellite imagery

[Brent Fraser]

Spot Image has some cost effective imagery (up to 2.5 meter resolution), 
or have a look at Ikonos imagery(from SpaceTurk) at 1.0 meter.   But 
there are other satellites (with lots of options) available, so you may 
want to contact a imagery reseller.

Best Regards,
Brent Fraser
