Breaking off from 2i2c-org/infrastructure#3479

We need to create a QGIS project file that includes all the data sources and configuration we need. Most configuration and data sources should be save-able in a project file. We will need to confirm details for things like plugins. As a first step, we can load whatever is possible to save as part of the project file, and if needed, we can run a custom python script on QGIS startup, which will give us more flexibility to configure what we like, see #5

As a first step, we will just load a static pre-configured project file when QGIS starts up.

@freitagb would you be able to help creating this QGIS project file? Essentially, I think this would be loading up all the data sources you need configured, etc. and then saving that as a QGIS project file. @geohacker can help with details or questions, also happy to get on a quick call. Of course, we can also go ahead and create this based on this ticket, but I think it would be great if you're able to create that project file as you know the data sources the best and it would put you in a better position to update it, add things as needed, etc.

We can use this ticket to discuss details of what all should be contained in the project file as well as any details / issues with saving the things we need in QGIS.

Pasting from this ticket:

The Earthdata GIS layers are availble via a Rest API and a connection can currently be established manually. It would be great if the Rest API connection was preloaded in the QGIS image so the Earthdata catalog would be available by default.
here is the Rest API url: https://gis.earthdata.nasa.gov/image/rest/services

We can add more notes here for other data sources and plugins that we would want to be enabled by default when QGIS opens.
