Re: [Matplotlib-users] Background basemaps in Basemap

[klo uo <kl...@gm...>]

Jeff, I just thought to mention this: function name "wmsmap" maybe
should be changed to "restmap" as for WMS servers will need to do
another template. Here is example urllib call for sample WMS function
GetMap:

========================================
basemap_url = "\
http://geonetwork3.fao.org/ows/14097?\
request=GetMap&\
service=WMS&\
version=1.1.1&\
layers=country_bnd&\
format=image/svg%2Bxml&\
bgcolor=0xFFFFFF&\
transparent=TRUE&\
srs=EPSG:4326&\
bbox=-180,-137.464503042596,180,137.464503042596&\
width=986&\
height=753\
"
