Geobase wms servers being shut down and replaced

[james2432]

When you add:
Geobase Roads
to viewed imagery you will get a warning that the wms server will be shutdown and to visit geogratis.gc.ca for more information.

The wms services are being replace with:
​https://www.nrcan.gc.ca/earth-sciences/geography/topographic-information/free-data-geogratis/geogratis-web-services/17216

For example geobase roads is now available from:
​http://maps.geogratis.gc.ca/wms/roads_en?service=wms&version=1.3.0&request=GetCapabilities
or
​http://maps.geogratis.gc.ca/wms/roads_fr?service=wms&version=1.3.0&request=GetCapabilities
More specifically:
wms:http://maps.geogratis.gc.ca/wms/roads_en?FORMAT=image/png&TRANSPARENT=TRUE&VERSION=1.1.1&SERVICE=WMS&REQUEST=GetMap&LAYERS=roads.road_segment.label&STYLES=&SRS={proj}&WIDTH={width}&HEIGHT={height}&BBOX={bbox}

or in french:

wms:http://maps.geogratis.gc.ca/wms/roads_fr?FORMAT=image/png&TRANSPARENT=TRUE&VERSION=1.1.1&SERVICE=WMS&REQUEST=GetMap&LAYERS=roads.road_segment.label&STYLES=&SRS={proj}&WIDTH={width}&HEIGHT={height}&BBOX={bbox}

The hydrography is the same:
​http://maps.geogratis.gc.ca/wms/hydro_network_en?service=wms&version=1.3.0&request=GetCapabilities
or
​http://maps.geogratis.gc.ca/wms/hydro_network_fr?service=wms&version=1.3.0&request=GetCapabilities

The imagery list is a wiki driven by the community, you can update it by yourself, see Maps/Canada.

Please close the issue once fixed.

[james2432]

Changed wiki entries.

NOTE - I changed the names back. Translation is done in Launchpad, our layer names should be English.

layers "Geobase Roads" (French and english) have been disabled a few days ago.
but it seem working at least from zoom level 11 to 20
​https://maps.geogratis.gc.ca/wms/roads_en?FORMAT=image/jpeg&VERSION=1.1.1&SERVICE=WMS&REQUEST=GetMap&LAYERS=roads.road_segment.label&STYLES=&SRS=EPSG:3857&WIDTH=512&HEIGHT=512&BBOX=-7944559.4915892,5909500.1379892,-7905423.7347892,5948635.8947892

did we need to add min zoom level or no-tile-checksum or something else is broken ?

[james2432]

Their reasonning it doesnt exist anymore, which isn't true. I reenabled them

[stoecker]

I disabled them, because

• I get only white tiles
• The Capabilities does not contain the layer names

The servcie itself still exists, but the JOSM entry does not work. It must be fixed and not only reenabled.

[anonymous]

you get white tiles because you are not putting png and instead putting jpg which doesnt handle transparency.

[stoecker]

Replying to anonym:

you get white tiles because you are not putting png and instead putting jpg which doesnt handle transparency.

What has transparency to do with this? I expect that I get something (probably roads) beside white. Also I don't "put" anything. I simply use the entry. And the entry definition as is does not work and must be fixed.

[james2432]

This would be an example of working link:

[Klumbumbus]

James, did you test the french version? The english version works for me now but not the french version.

[james2432]

They translated the subdomain instead of having one -_-

It's not working but I think that's NRCan't i'll send them a message that their french basemap isnt working(they had did a reboot over the weekend)

[marc_marc]

both seems working for me, here is a french tile

LAYERS=routes <> road

[Klumbumbus]

Yes works for me now, but I don't see a difference between the two sources.

[marc_marc]

the diff is some labels (autoroute <> highway)
in French

[Klumbumbus]

So everything fine now, right?

[james2432]

seems like it

[Klumbumbus]

@marc_marc: these are left to be updated in ELI: https://josm.openstreetmap.de/wiki/ImageryCompareIgnores?sfp_email=&sfph_mail=&action=diff&version=425&old_version=422&sfp_email=&sfph_mail=
