1. A system comprising one or more processors configured to: estimate a rate of change for a geographic location using image data of the geographic location, wherein the rate of change identifies a frequency at which the geographic location is modified; determine an importance value for the geographic location that indicates an likelihood that the image data of the geographic location is current; determine observation bandwidth for one or more image providers at the geographic location based on the estimated rate of change and the determined importance value, wherein the observation bandwidth identifies a rate at which the image provider reacquires image data at the geographic location; and allocate the determined observation bandwidth by: grouping a plurality of geographic locations that have substantially the same estimated rate of change and substantially the same determined importance value; accessing a plurality of image providers each image provider of the plurality of image providers associated with at least one geographic location; and determining the same observation bandwidth for each image provider associated with geographic locations in the same group.
