Hi Jeshua,
I haven't tested r.in.wms yet, but I can help you to learn about the WMS
layers:
- as the r.in.wms manual[1] states, you must always look at the
capabilities of the WMS service to get the layer names
- a list of NAIP services can be found at
https://gis.apfo.usda.gov/arcgis/rest/services/NAIP/
- clicking on the NAIP/California service, on the resulting page there
will be a small "WMS" link in the top left of the page, this is the
GetCapabilities for that service, click it
(https://gis.apfo.usda.gov/arcgis/services/NAIP/California_2016_60cm/ImageServer/WMSServer?request=GetCapabilities&service=WMS)
- look for a <layer> <name> parameter in that response. Unfortunately
ArcGIS services are awful for metadata, so you can see here that the
layer is named "0" (lovely, so very helpful, ha).
- if you want another way to find your WMS layer names, use that service
in QGIS and click on the "Add WMS layer" button, create a new
connection, and use this for the URL:
https://gis.apfo.usda.gov/arcgis/services/NAIP/California_2016_60cm/ImageServer/WMSServer?
Hope that helps.

Greetings,
Is it possible to import NAIP data using the USDA WMS server with r.in.wms?
Instructions how to use their WMS server is here:
https://www.fsa.usda.gov/Assets/USDA-FSA-Public/usdafiles/APFO/2013_apfo_web_service_931.pdf
To download the NAIP for say California, its not clear to me what to specify
for the layer(s) name(s).
Whatever I have tried I get a message:
"Unable to import pyGRASS: grass_gis.7.2.1 not found.”
I’m not sure if that has anything to do with not being able to get any data to
download or I just don’t know what I am doing.
Thanks,
