Re: [Qgis-user] trouble adding a basemap from a WMTS source

Stephen,

Note that if you ask for ant=y service in a CRS that is not the ‘native’ one 
for the service (which for WMTS is usually EPSG:3857, the ‘google’ Mercator), 
it fully depends on how that service is set up if it is able and “willing” to 
provide it in the requested CRS. You can find that out by checking the services 
metadata (eg for WMS and other OGC compatible ones by issueing a 
GetCapabilities request).

leave HTTP and options blank

8. I drag one of them ("basemap") onto the map canvas; right-click on it and

9. I see a msg at the top of the canvas:  "Used a ballpark transform from 
EPSG:2263 to EPSG:900913"  , which seems to me to be the opposite of what I 
asked for
10.  the added layer appears totally blank.  Toggling its checkmark in the 
layer panel has no effect.  Zoom-to-layer makes the scale go to a nine-digit 
number.  Zoom to 1:100 has no effect.
11. I tried again, with a new, blank project, with project CRS set to 
EPSG:900913.  I added one layer by dragging "basemap" from "DOITT Monday" onto 
the canvas.  The canvas remained blank.  I added one small layer from my real 
project, transformed it to 900613, and "zoomed  to layer" so as to focus on 
part of my park.  My  layer appeared but still no visible basemap.

 What am I doing wrong?   Thanks for any advice.

If you are getting blank results there is a reasonable prospect of a 
problem with the service provider. This may include geographic 
limitations on the data access. Certainly from where I am, the page that 
is supposed to display the WMTS layers comes up blank, and a connection 
error results from attempting the steps below.
