"In my mind the main challenge of the project is data in all its aspects:
- how is data made available to the project?
- how it is screened in terms of licencing?
- who will preprocess/verify data?
- how/who will be responsible for keeping some sort of metadata records?
- how/who will tile the imagery?"

Another question is how will it be screened in terms of accuracy? I'd hate to see some nice municipal coverage, orthorectified to a tight DEM and GCP set, get clobbered by some UAV imagery with a 3-point warp.

In a my fantasy world, I think it would be neat to be able to connect to a tile server and pass parameters defining accuracy, recency, resolution or whatever, and get back matching tiles.
