Summary

Adds the 2026-07-24 Global ML Building Footprints release and migrates dataset hosting.

Changes

  • New release bullet (2026-07-24): Added 431K building footprints and 431K height estimates derived from Vexcel imagery in 2025. Largest contributions are to the United States (343K), Norway (50K), and Italy (33K).
  • Hosting migration: Repointed all dataset-links.csv links to the new bfppub host (https://bfppub.blob.core.windows.net/%24web/2026-07-24/dataset-links.csv) and added a "hosting is moving" note, mirroring the 2024-11-07 precedent.

Notes

  • The coverage GeoJSON links (buildings-coverage.geojson, buildings-with-height-coverage.geojson) and the historical 2024-11-07 migration note were intentionally left on the existing host.
  • New dataset-links.csv URL verified reachable (HTTP 200).

- Add 2026-07-24 release: 431K building footprints and 431K height estimates from Vexcel 2025 imagery (US 343K, Norway 50K, Italy 33K).

- Migrate dataset-links.csv links to new bfppub host and add hosting-move note.
