RMaps previously provided free satellite imagery, and any geo-location could be shared from OSMand to RMaps, to quickly show a satellite overview. (Tiles from ARCGIS IIRC)

What is the current state of satellite imagery in fdroid?

How can an OSMand location be quickly opened as a satellite view?

Edit: Extra info is, I’m looking for an offline satellite image solution. Full pre-loading of a specific areas, before travel.

With RMaps, it was possible to pre-load the tiles for the remote-location needed at various zoom-levels, before travelling a few 100kms from cell-towers, and then still being able to access an offline-satellite-view of those locations when there.

    Thanks for this.

    Do you know what happened to RMaps?

    The previous page for it on fdroid 404s.

      Afraid I have no idea on that one. A quick search led me in circles, so that doesn’t bode well.
