Installation#
This package depends on GeoPandas, PyGEOS, and Dask.
GeoPandas is written in pure Python, but has several dependencies written in C (GEOS, GDAL, PROJ). Those base C libraries can sometimes be a challenge to install. Therefore, we advise you to closely follow the recommendations to avoid installation problems.
Easy way#
The best way to install Dask-GeoPandas is using conda
or mamba
and conda-forge
channel:
conda install -c conda-forge dask-geopandas
pip#
You can install Dask-GeoPandas with pip
from PyPI but make sure that your environment contains
properly installed GeoPandas (note that Dask-GeoPandas does not use fiona
which therefore doesn’t
have to be installed). See the GeoPandas installation instructions for details.
pip install dask-geopandas
Fresh environment#
One way to install all required dependencies is to use the conda
package manager to
create a new environment:
conda create -n geo_env
conda activate geo_env
conda config --env --add channels conda-forge
conda config --env --set channel_priority strict
conda install dask-geopandas
