Issue with the hostname

[denis-f]

Dear developpers,

Many thanks for this tool, which we used successfully some time ago. I try now to re-use it and it seems that there is a problem with the host wxs.ign.fr, probably due to the recent server changes at IGN :

urllib3.exceptions.MaxRetryError: HTTPSConnectionPool(host='wxs.ign.fr', port=443): Max retries exceeded with url: /search/layers?&cql_filter=demat_layer_id+=+'DEMAT.PVA$GEOPORTAIL:DEMAT;PHOTOS'+and+INTERSECTS(the_geom,POLYGON((43.65+3.5,43.65+3.6,43.75+3.6,43.75+3.5,43.65+3.5)))&outputFormat=json&request=GetFeature&resultType=hits&typeName=ign:missions&version=1.1.0 (Caused by NewConnectionError('<urllib3.connection.HTTPSConnection object at 0x793e469348d0>: Failed to establish a new connection: [Errno -5] No address associated with hostname'))

How can I get this script work again ?

Many thanks in advance.

Hi,

You're right, this repository should have been archived. This small script was working with the previous version of IGNF spatial data infrastructure. The situation has changed : the KML files have been superseded by vector tiles, the URLs of download services have changed, ... . I'll have a look and see if I can manage something in the coming weeks.

However, in order to give the best answer to your need :

• Would it be satisfactory if https://remonterletemps.ign.fr/ was giving the mean to download a full aerial survey (list of urls, archive, ...) ?
• If not, please feel free to give more details about your use case

Cheers

Many thanks for the quick answer !

What I appreciated in the tool was that it allowed to possibly download the full archive covering a given area. Moreover I would appreciate a tool that would give access to the latest data. On https://remonterletemps.ign.fr/ the latest available images seem to be the ones of 2011. Images in geoportail are from 2021 and I guess that there may be even newer images available.

Cheers
