Is it possible yet to use your own GEOserver to create the tiles for the geo maps in plotly? Instead of MapBox or similar. ---

Never mind, got it working already using this example: [https://plot.ly/python/mapbox-layers/#base-tiles-from-the-usgs-radar-overlay-from-environment-canada-no-token-needed](https://plot.ly/python/mapbox-layers/#base-tiles-from-the-usgs-radar-overlay-from-environment-canada-no-token-needed) Still had to play around with the x y z variables and add the ‘.png’ extension. But it works on our intern network. Don’t need the mapbox access key or any active internet connection anymore, so that’s great. ---

hey, is there any chance you still have an example to show me?
