We are now offering MapBox Aerial source to Gaia Green subscribers. At this time, we don’t plan to include it in the base app, because the pricing is a bit steep for our level of usage.

If you are a beta tester or Gaia Green subscriber, you can send an email to support@gaiagps.com, and we’ll send you a link to add the source to Gaia. In v7.4 of the app, there will be an option to add it directly, without contacting support.

The MapBox aerials are really cool, because they “average” pixels from multiple images, to remove clouds, snow, and other not-so-relevant seasonal data. The coverage is global, with higher resolution imagery in the US.
