UPDATE: I did it! I successfully used Cartographica (and the integrated Bing Maps) to create this drawing that shows the current ( abysmal) bike parking at a Chicago Home Depot outside the 50 feet line.
Cartographica lpk how to#
This screenshot shows how to add new WMS connections to Cartographica.

uDig hasn’t been able to download anything so far – I hope it’s asking for the current extent, instead of all data because it’s taking a looong time to do anything (so long that I just quit in the  middle of it). In another case, it won’t even download the USGS imagery (and gives no indication that anything is happening). In one case, Cartographica trims the Bing Maps imagery to match the extent of my other objects (the buffer). I’m having success with neither – both are having issues downloading or maintaining a connection to the USGS orthoimagery. Cartographica can obtain some of the WMS-stored data I want, although it messes up often. UPDATE: I have had NO success getting any data to load from a WMS connection into uDig. We suggest that you spend some time to study their specific functions and determine which one is the better alternative for your business.

Or you can look at their general user satisfaction rating, 97 for GRASS GIS vs.
