I map mainly in Arizona but I have a few edits elsewhere like in Michigan.
I am currently working on a project where I wish to eradicate the tag landuse=reservoir
from the state of Arizona. To see my procedure, etc. Click Here.
Helpful Resources For mapping in Pima County
The map above is provided by Pima County with much more updated imagery compared to the imagery that OSM provides.
Imagery Offsets in Oro Valley
Bing Imagery
0.77, -0.51
Ersi World Imagery
-0.09, -0.06 Don't use this, it is taken at an angle causing taller structures to be inaccurately mapped.
Ersi World Imagery (Clarity) Beta
1.15, 0.41
Mapbox Satellite
1.8, -1.9 Taken a slight angle. Still usable you just have to be careful.
Maxar Premium Imagery (Beta)

My Imagery Opinions in Oro Valley
Bing Imagery
The best latest imagery in the area. Slightly blurry up close.
Ersi World Imagery
Don't Use this, it is taken at an angle causing taller structures to be inaccurately mapped. If you do you this it is taken in late 2019 / early 2020.
Ersi World Imagery (Clarity) Beta
Probably a couple years old. The normal Ersi World Imagery is more clear than this. I do not recommend this one.
Mapbox Satellite
Technically the latest imagery. At zoom levels under 16 it shows the latest imagery available. At larger zoom levels the map is probably about as old as Ersi World Imagery. It is very clear up close though. The highest clarity up close of all of the maps. Taken a slight angle. Still usable you just have to be careful. In some parts of the Catalina Mountains this imagery is horrible with no detail. In other parts though it looks quite nice with a lesser amount of clarity as Tucson / Oro Valley. This is some very nice imagery.
Maxar Premium Imagery (Beta)
From what I can tell this is tied for the latest imagery. With this you can actually zoom in closer. It is quite pixelated though. Some pretty good imagery.
Maxar Standard Imagery (Beta)
The exact same as the Maxar Premium Imagery (Beta).
OpenStreetMap (Standard)
This is good for checking what you have changed visually before pushing your changeset.
OpenTopoMap
OpenStreetMap with topography lines. Very nice for a detailed topography map.
Stamen Terrain
Horrible looking terrain becoming very undetailed up close. I do not recommend this.
National Agriculture Imagery Program
Very "liney" and pixelated up close. Don't Use this, it is taken at an angle causing taller structures to be inaccurately mapped. I do not recommend this at all.
U.S. Forest Service Roads
Only use this for official maps with forest roads.
USGS Imagery
Very blurry. I would not recommend using this.
USGS Topographic Maps
Some very nice classic topography maps. Nice for looking at washes / streams. Quite outdated though.
