Jeff it looks great, everything is parametrized including server name
and map name, so it should work for any additional service.
However on Windows with Python 2.7 and Basemap 1.0.5 I get an error
while trying to run the script:
========================================
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "testwms.py", line 39, in <module>
m=Basemap2(epsg=epsg,resolution='h',width=width,height=height)
TypeError: __init__() got an unexpected keyword argument 'epsg'
========================================
I than added initial empty "epsg" arg to original Basemap class
declaration, but then after some time processing I get:
========================================
warning: width and height keywords ignored for Cylindrical Equidistant
projectionEPSG:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "testwms.py", line 47, in <module>
m.drawparallels(np.arange(0,80,1),labels=[1,0,0,0])
File "testwms.py", line 15, in wmsmap
if not hasattr(self,'epsg'):
AttributeError: 'Basemap2' object has no attribute 'epsg'
========================================
So I leave it for now and assume it's some tiny issue not obvious at
this time to me.
I'll continue WMS search, but yesterday I spent couple of hours just
to look at those beautiful maps provided on arcgis server. I explored
on all and it's so nicely done and with high resolution zoom. They are
annotated though, but again, see i.e. Ocean Basemap, or overlay with
transparency over some more colored topo map like GEBCO_08 from
maps.ngdc.noaa.gov server - just great. World Topo also...
