Use different geographic web services example? #186

The "Geographic web services" example contains MULTISURFACE geometries, which works in R: Screenshot from 2023-08-13 17-32-48 But not in Python: Screenshot from 2023-08-13 17-32-19

Should we replace it with a different example that has standard geometry types? Will be happy to hear your thoughts, thanks

Yep, it would be good to replace it -- in both books. Do you have any suggestions for a data source?

OK 👍 I have little experience with this type of services and don't have an idea at the moment, will try to look for one

I don't have any idea for an example yet (and perhaps this section isn't high priority?), so I've commented-out the web services section for now
