Yes, and also to pass right `size` parameter as aspect ratio needs to be correct Do you want me to try to pair both projections (Basemap name and WKID and WKT as they call it)? > Here's an example for south polar stereographic: > > width = 12000.e3 > plt.figure() > basemap_url =\ > "http://server.arcgisonline.com/ArcGIS/rest/services/ESRI_Imagery_World_2D/MapServer/export?\ > bbox=%d,%d,%d,%d&\ > bboxSR=3412&\ > imageSR=3412&\ > size=800,800&\ > dpi=128&\ > format=png32&\ > f=image" % (-width/2,-width/2,width/2,width/2) > m =\ > Basemap(projection='stere',resolution='i',lon_0=0,lat_0=-90,lat_ts=-70,\ > width=width,height=width,rsphere=(6378273,6356889.449)) > m.imshow(plt.imread(urllib2.urlopen(basemap_url)),origin='upper') > m.drawmeridians(np.arange(-180,180,30),labels=[0,0,0,1],color='y') > m.drawparallels(np.arange(-80,-0,10),labels=[1,0,0,0],color='y') > m.drawcoastlines() > plt.show() > Looks beautifully :) As said later today I'll look at Nokia maps and then will try to look for WMS servers. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Live Security Virtual Conference Exclusive live event will cover all the ways today's security and threat landscape has changed and how IT managers can respond.
