For those facing an issue about the geopandas installation with Anaconda, a solution is just to upgrade the conda version by using this syntaxt in the Anaconda Prompt " conda update --prefix C:\Users\HP\anaconda3 anaconda". Don't forget to replace the path by yours where anaconda is installed. After that the installation will work. Thanks dear for this interesting ressource on Geopandas :)

[@tubuobaggio]

Thank you very much i struggled for the whole day to install geopandas, i finally created an env to install the geopandas in instead of installing it in the base, i actually succeeded but on spyder when i import it what i get is just errors, your solution was straight to the point, thank you very much

[@manash.b4892]

Thank you so much! Not being able to install geopandas had me frustrated. Now it works as it should.

does anyone know the macbook equivalent of this? :(

The concepts are explained in the best way possible and the content is simply best.

[@theforester_]

awesome video mate. big shout out from Brazil

[@theforester_]

just a quick question, i'm new to python and as you may have noticed most of the tutorials for python use Jupyter notebook as IDE. i've noticed that you have been using Spyder as IDE, do you think it's better when compared to Jupyter, people who use python for Spatial data analysis tend to use more Spyder IDE istead of Jupyter? thanks again!

[@geodeltalabs]

Hi there, I think it's purely based on the personal preference. The only legit reason I have for using Spyder over Jupyter is that personally I was using Spyder way before I discovered Jupyter, and never really wanted to make the move. So far I have never had any issues with Spyder especially when it comes to getting the additional packages to install and run without much of a hassle. I'd recommend you try out both and stick with the one you find more comfortable to work with. 😊

MY GUY!! just finally got pandas successfully installed via conda. had to copy the files in the Library/bin... libcrypto.dll and libssl.dll or some shit, once you copy those files to the DLL folder it worked... anyways, super excited thanks! please do more! make a shirt so i can show my support, or donations.

[@geodeltalabs]

Glad you managed to get the issues solved :) and thanks for your kind comments. Now that you mentioned it, I'm actually thinking about a t-shirt. Never crossed my mind before though 😂

[@mateaandmilos]

Amazing library :)

[@themapmaker5374]

Great! Just one question - how do you choose and set an individual color to each district?? I don't want geopandas to set randam colors to the districts. Instead, I want to select colors and hues of the districts myself via code.

[@ANJUMOHANJ]

Sir, when export into ESRI shape file, there is an error like "DriverError: unsupported driver: 'ESRI shapefile'". How to solve this proble

[@siddharthkshirsagar2545]

Really amazing, I have one query though in this demonstration you have used shape file .shp. But I have worked with .geojson files so is there any difference between these files performance of memory wise. My use case is deploying as a Realtime dashboard. Thanks

[@joem8251]

I was able to download data from your google drive. I appreciate that. How can I obtain similar data?

[@the_bruce-z1w]

double click on the districts variable doesn't work. I can't view the variable. In Spyder it gives: Spyder was unable to retrieve the value of this variable from console.

Hello sir, the hands-on tutorial on geopandas is simple and easy to understand. It builds confidence to start with vector data using the python library. Here is an error while installing geopandas library in conda env. Can you make a video on how to install the geopandas library in the spyder IDE.

I have some data from a csv, when i loaded 1 file and the shapefile it looked fine.

I kinda had that problem, you can create another environment other than base and try to do installation In anaconda prompt use following Conda create --name myenv Conda activate myenv Then try installing. 'Myenv' can be any name you choose you may have to install every libraries required and spyder itself to the new environment you created
