AWS jobs - nshmp-maps fails to create maps, map configuration options

  • recently, no maps have been created for valid map runs: "WARNING: Could not create GMT maps" (e.g. https://earthquake.usgs.gov/nshmp/internal/aws/check-haz-jobs?id=2ff72f5a2f9cb9)
  • there are many calculations that hazard maps (PDFs) are unnecessary (e.g. sensitivities where maps will be created separately) and a configuration option to turn off nshmp-maps would be a great option to have
  • when maps were being made successfully, GMT Map Configuration options were not respected (the region in particular, maybe the title)
  • nshmp-maps shouldn't even be called for non-map, non-hazard runs... currently nshmp-apps docker image is built for every job (even DisaggCalc jobs). A simple check on the calculation type ("className") at least, and maybe a peek into the site file so see if there are named sites, could skip this time consuming step
