I just started a new job and I have to set up my geospatial environment in Windows (I was a mac user before). I am having trouble navigating around geopandas bug #830. Based on the comments for the bug, it looks like if I can downgrade pyproj to version 1.9.4 it will fix the issue. BUT, I cannot get 1.9.4 installed for one reason or another. I have tried the following without success:
conda install -c conda-forge pyproj==1.9.4
When I try this, it gets hung up in the "Solving Environment" stage.
I then tried this:
pip install pyproj==1.9.4
but, I get this error:
Collecting pyproj-1.9.4
Could not find a version that satisfies the requirement pyproj-1.9.4 (from
versions: )
No matching distribution found for pyproj-1.9.4
So, I tried downloading the tar file and doing the following:
pip install "C:\Users\myname\Downloads\pyproj-1.9.4.tar"
but got this error:
Could not install packages due to an EnvironmentError: [Errno 2] No such
file or directory: 'C:\Users\myname\Downloads\pyproj-1.9.4.tar'
I have actually done more than this (it has been a long 8 hours), but I am hoping that somebody smarter than I can put me out of my misery :-) I am using conda version 4.5.11 and python 3.5.6.
Thanks in advance for any help.
