WMS: replace broken URLs with alternative WMS

[neteler]

WMS URL updates:

• both NASA GIBS and irs.gis-lab.info are no longer reachable
• replaced with global WMS by terrestris and Sentinel-2 by EOX

TODO: it is not clear to me if the EOX tile service is supported at all.

Alternative suggestions are welcome, ideally WMS services with global coverage.

Note that the list shown in the GUI may be extended by the local list in $HOME/.grass8/wxWS if present (i.e., old WMS records to be removed there)

The EOX does not work for me in NC location. I get errors like this one in the terminal:

Module run d.wms d.wms --q wms_version=1.1.1 driver=WMS_GRASS url=https://tiles.maps.eox.at/wms?service=wms&request=getcapabilities layers=bluemarble styles= format=png srs=4326 maxcols=500 maxrows=500 urlparams= method=cubicspline map=Blue marble background layer by EOX - 4326 ended with error

GRASS_INFO_ERROR(7364,1): Process ended with non-zero return code 1. See errors in the (error) output.
GRASS_INFO_END(7364,1)

ERROR 4: /home/veroandreo/grassdata/nc_basic_spm_grass7/PERMANENT/.tmp/localhost.localdomain/6703.4: No such file or directory

Is this bc something is missing in my settings? In QGIS, EOX WMS service works fine though

Same here...

Module run d.wms d.wms --q wms_version=1.1.1 driver=WMS_GRASS url=https://tiles.maps.eox.at/wms?service=wms&request=getcapabilities layers=bluemarble...

I suspect that driver=WMS_GRASS is the problem. I locally changed it in gui/wxpython/web_services/widgets.py to driver=WMS_GDAL but then I get

Traceback (most recent call last):

Improvements welcome (in a separate PR).

r.in.wms command:

GRASS test/PERMANENT:~ > r.in.wms url="https://tiles.maps.eox.at/wms?service=wms&request=getcapabilities" output=costline layers=coastline
Downloading data from WMS server...
ERROR: WMS server error: no band(s) received. Is server URL correct?
       <https://tiles.maps.eox.at/wms?service=wms&request=getcapabilities>

Ok, so I'll remove the apparently unsupported tile server.

What else to add as WMS?

Ah thanks. Slow but works for me now.

@neteler I can connect without issue to http://gibs.earthdata.nasa.gov/wmts/epsg4326/best/wmts.cgi using GRASS 7.8.5 OSGeo4W on Windows 7.
