OpenAerialMap (OAM)

What is OpenAerialMap?

Imagery from satellites, unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) and other aircraft is becoming increasingly available after a disaster. It is often difficult to determine what is available and easily access it. OpenAerialMap (OAM) seeks to solve this by providing a simple open way to host and provide access to imagery for humanitarian response and disaster preparedness.

Repositories

The following repositories are part of the OAM project:

oam-apiCatalog for indexing open imagery
oam-browserImagery browser for searching available imagery
oam-uploaderThe web frontend to the OAM Uploader API
oam-uploader-apiThe OAM Uploader API server
oam-docsOAM Documentation
openaerialmap.orgCode for the OpenAerialMap.org Website
