Add 5 cm resolution greyscale imagery as basemap to Veridaas VM Opps

This imagery would show an image collected EXACTLY when the Lidar was collected. Super useful.

    One of the big challenges with our basemapping for EIS or VegM customers is that they want to visualize the same basemap as they do the content-driven analytics corresponding to their most recent imagery collection. In other words, if IBM shows a bad score in a Utility network (a "D" score for example), does the underlying image/basemap support or negate that conclusion?

    Very high value for clients! We have never been able to show a basemap with our vegetation insights that accurately reflect visually the vegetation on the ground at the time of the Vegetation Scan data. Other basemaps are mosaic'd with tiles that are collected at different dates/times (e.g. sometmes multiple years old) and most importantly the shortfall of current basemaps are when they are collected in a different season when leaves are not on the trees.
