Getting work with geodata is unfortunately not easy, the problem is that the dependencies partially do not work, and you must use older versions of Fiona and GDAL. The following packages work stably:
GDAL: 1.11.2 Fiona: 1.6.0 Geopandas: 0.1.0.dev-
To install on ubuntu:
sudo apt-get install build-essential python-all-dev wget http://download.osgeo.org/gdal/1.11.2/gdal-1.11.2.tar.gz tar xvfz gdal-1.11.2.tar.gz cd gdal-1.11.2 ./configure
In addition, some Linux distributions require updating the shared library cache after installation:
sudo ldconfig
Fiona and geodata can be set classic:
sudo pip install Fiona==1.6.0 sudo pip install geopandas
Under the windows
As @Marcus Williams notes:
Download the Windows Fiona and GDAL binaries appropriate for your python environment (32, 64 bit and 2.7 3.3 etc. (from http://www.lfd.uci.edu/~gohlke/pythonlibs/ ) and go to cmd with cd to the directory where the files are downloaded and install the .whl files with the command
pip install filename.whl
Finally:
pip install geopandas
source share
