Description

Hello, why all providers have rectangle defined like entire Earth and do not use e.g. Full Extent from ArcGIS Server or Bounding Box from WMS/WMTS servers?

Research direction

Start by locating the imagery-provider implementations and how each provider currently defines its rectangle. Review ArcGIS Server full extents and WMS/WMTS bounding boxes as the issue suggests. Done means providers use their available service extents instead of defaulting to the entire Earth, with behavior checked for the affected providers.
