Hi Luigi, 

Thanks for the hint. 

I had a look at their data - it is 10m spatial resolution - right? 

The data is easy to find and very new - but I am afraid that 10m spatial
resolution is not good enough for our purpose. Our requirement is 1m or
smaller spatial resolution. 

Thanks anyway, 

Andreas
