MPL folks,
Would it be possible to enhance Matplotlib to allow "im=imread(url)"
to work if url returns a JPG?
Currently (it seems):
1. If the URL returns a PNG this works:
im = imread(urllib2.urlopen(url))
2. If the URL returns a JPG, this DOESN'T work:
im = imread(urllib2.urlopen(url))
.. a
6 from WMS, that's the 'cyl' in Basemap).
Thanks!
Rich

WMS services are required to respond to "GetCapabiltiies" request,
reporting what layers, styles, times, elevations, and projections they
have available. So for example, using the Unidata WMS example below,
if we do:

Matplotlib folks,
Probably the two most common web map services are the OGC-standard WMS
service and ESRI's non-standard custom REST service.
I was looking for how to do WMS request in basemap and found
"testarcgisimage.py" which uses the "arcgisimage" method.
It look like there was a "wmsimage
