Hello! Welcome to OpenStreetMap, and thank you for your contributions. Among the editors you've mentioned you're using, only Vespucci has the option of re-aligning the imagery. See: https://vespucci.io/help/en/Aligning%20background%20imagery/
The ideal way of adjusting imagery is to align it with many (many) SatNav tracks, and Strava is often used for this, but this could get tedious if you need to realign dense neighborhoods. The practical way is to adjust the imagery to whatever is the alignment in use in the area you're editing. Good luck with your mapping efforts, and don't forget to have fun! *Erwin Olario* - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - » email: [email protected] On Mon, May 5, 2025 at 5:36 PM Ernst <[email protected]> wrote: > Hello, > I am Ernst (de_pelgrim) a Dutch guy always interested in mapping, but > never started the right way.
