How to install movingpandas? about movingpandas HOT 6 CLOSED

There is no packaged release of MovingPandas yet, so it cannot be installed in the same sense as a proper Python page.

trajectory.py does not contain import movingpandas as mp. Do you mean one of the ipynb notebooks? (They do contain this line.)

The easiest way to use MovingPandas right now is through the MyBinder notebook at: https://mybinder.org/v2/gh/anitagraser/movingpandas/master

Alternatively, I recommend installing Anaconda. Then you can use the environment.yml config file to tell conda how to configure a Python environment that is compatible with MovingPandas. This way you can run the included ipynb notebooks locally on your machine or start using MovingPandas in your own projects.

Hi! Thanks for the reply. If i opt to go with the creation of an environment through anaconda, what exactly do I need to do?

I have the following steps in mind:

1.) Install anaconda,
2.) copy the environments.yml file to the env directory of conda
3.) Then execute the following code in my terminal
conda env create -f environment.yml

But, do I still need to add anything to the environment.yml file downloaded from github? What other steps am I missing?

I want to create a similar plot you have in the mybinder notebook at Out[21] but with my own point data.

from movingpandas.

The following steps should do it:

1. Install Anaconda
2. Clone the movingpandas repository
3. In Anaconda Navigator | Environments | Import select the movingpandas environment.yml from the cloned directory:

4. Wait until the environment is ready, then change to the Home tab and install Jupyter notebooks into the movingpandas environment
5. Launch Jupyter notebooks and navigate to the cloned directory to execute them
6. Now you can adjust the code to use your own data

Hi,

Thanks for the tips.

I did everything from 1 to 6, but whenever I try to execute the import statements in the notebook, I get this error. I tried reading it but cannot seem to understand why it occurs

I ran these codes first in the notebook:

import urllib import os import pandas as pd import movingpandas as mp import contextily as ctx from geopandas import GeoDataFrame, read_file from shapely.geometry import Point, LineString, Polygon from datetime import datetime, timedelta

Then this is the error message:

I am not sure what is happening. I have done all the steps including the install Jupyter from the Home tab to my movingpandas environment. Any ideas on what could be happening?

Hi. Im using a OSX

It seems that it's a problem I also have with shapely. I've been trying to fix it but cannot seem to find a solution.

This is the link of what I experience with shapely also. I have installed all depndencies from conda-forge as to not have it mixing up with defaults. But it still has problems with regard to geos and its libs as seen here
