We have a WMS server that uses basemap to display unstructured ocean model
data. We just limit the set of projections to a select few (just the most
common ones), and have a mapping between EPSG and the required Basemap kwargs.
It sometimes requires some implementation of proj4 prior to getting

Nokia map services are OK, and can be used even without applying for
free account, but they brand every map with their logo even for
professional licence.

Well it seems ArcGIS web-services can't be bitten in public place.
Google and Bing static maps have many limitations:
- require account for providing key
- draw logos on image
- limited size: Bing basic account can return max 900x834 and Google
1280x1280 (while ArcGIS 2048x2048)

This is like more advanced, on a higher level. I imagine if you plan
to add some interaction to Basemap, it would be fantastic, to say at
least.

Hi Jeff,
thanks for your reply.
I was hoping to get response if there are ideas how this unfortunate
performance can be avoided. If there are some thoughts

I wanted to overlay some plot over map, and thought to use one of

Result isn't that great as expected: loading bluemarble map took 1GB

blurred w/o details. As a consequence, using custo
