Download raw Mapbox satellite imagery

How do I download raw Mapbox satellite imagery (the one that is available for tracing). I need it in original native scale for research purposes. Is the "OSM enabled" imagery the same one that Mapbox promotes on its website?

I would appreciate being able to select the area for download somehow. Also maybe some info on their tiling system (how to stitch smaller tiles together to create larger coverage). I am sure I could reverse engineer some of the editors (iD, JOSM etc.) but it will be much faster if someone can give me few hits.

Thanks for your help!

0	I'd ask Mapbox. Also, you don't really mean 1:1 do you? permanent link answered 06 Mar '17, 12:40 SomeoneElse ♦ 36.9k●71●370●866 accept rate: 16% Removed the 1:1 scale from question. Long live Black Adder! :) (06 Mar '17, 12:48) Kozuch

0	The higher zoom imagery that Mapbox uses is licensed from DigitalGlobe, I would suggest contacting them, probably Kevin Bullock can guide you to the right person. permanent link answered 06 Mar '17, 15:11 SimonPoole ♦ 44.7k●13●326●701 accept rate: 18%
