Add layer for Aerial Imagery - Guelph 2022

[Coehill]

The city of Guelph, Ontario, Canada has aerial imagery available from their site: https://geodatahub-cityofguelph.opendata.arcgis.com/documents/2dc795fae6904bac945c716ed33f450c/about

It uses the following license: https://explore.guelph.ca/pages/open-data-license

This is the OpenStreetMap community forum post I have open: https://community.openstreetmap.org/t/esri-aerial-imagery-out-of-date-for-guelph-ontario/117743

I have received license approval here:

Thank you, we have confirmed that OGL-Guelph is compatible.

Best,
Kathleen Lu, on behalf of LWG

Kind regards

Kathleen Lu

(if possible, provide a bounding polygon where the imagery is valid, e.g. as a GeoJSON or OSM file.)
See FAQ at https://github.com/osmlab/editor-layer-index/blob/gh-pages/FAQ.md#how-can-i-draw-a-bounding-polygon) for information about how to draw a bounding polygon.

Is there a WMS service, serving this imagery? Or some other way to retrieve it, which isn't just downloading the entire thing?

[zabop]

I'm happy to try to tile the source, but it seems the URL doesn't work anymore ("Page Not Found"). @Coehill, could you provide us with a new URL?

[wolfy1339]

I found the new URL, https://explore.guelph.ca/documents/b5f353e0bd3647c5b6d09958a35c946f/about

There's also a 2023 version, https://explore.guelph.ca/documents/655f7ca37096464c85c4c7a609cdf90d/about

There are ArcGIS image servers for these layers in use at https://gismaps.guelph.ca/portal/apps/ImageryViewer/index.html?appid=6461bf4d90ec41fba1eb0731c79bc95b however they're not explicitly published anywhere that I can see. @Coehill it may be worth sending their GIS dept. an email asking if they would be open to hosting public WMS servers for aerial layers
