This PR fixes #1332

CartoDB basemaps need an API key now and so current installs of CLIMADA using the default basemap can't plot. OpenStreetMap gives similar errors.

This moves all default basemaps to Esri.WorldGrayCanvas. I think it's worth rolling out a fix quickly so users can update and choosing a better basemap for the next full release.

@emanuel-schmid if you think this should rather be merged to main you can (hopefully) cherry-pick the commit.

  • I haven't re-run all the notebooks that make plots with basemaps. Do we need to do this?
  • One test is failing but it seems to be unrelated
