    request returned HTTP 200 with a valid WMS_Capabilities document titled "ECCC Web Map Service" — but the document declares
    NO published layers, only the root Layer element, and a WFS 2.0.0 GetCapabilities request returned no feature types. The
    service is real and callable; it is not populated on this host. Recorded as presence without content rather than as coverage
    — ECCC''s substantive open geospatial data is distributed through other federal surfaces, which are not profiled here
    yet.'
