Working with Notebooks#

Step 2:

conda activate [NAME OF YOUR ENV]

Step 3:

conda install -c conda-forge notebook pyinterpolate

Now you are able to run library from a notebook.

Failing pylibtiff build - Linux#

With installation on a fresh Linux distribution you might encounter problems with pylibtiff which is a dependency of pyinterpolate. You will get a long error message. The last line of the message is:

ERROR: ERROR: Failed to build installable wheels for some pyproject.toml based projects (pylibtiff)

This means that you haven’t configured required system libraries yet. You should install those three libraries:

  • libtiff-dev

  • python3-dev

  • gcc

Install those using command:

sudo apt install gcc python3-dev libtiff-dev

and after installation you should be able to install pyinterpolate without problems.

The libspatialindex_c.so dependency error#

With Python==3.7 installation rtree and GeoPandas that are requirements for pyinterpolate may be not installed properly because your operating system does not have libspatialindex_c.so file. In this case install it from terminal:

Linux:

sudo apt install libspatialindex-dev

MacOS:

brew install spatialindex
