Info and help for Python course
Setting up environment
Please remember this is a Windows based course. You can try and run other OS’s (and you’ll probably be fine), but I don’t support them.
I will run through all of this on intro session.
Download anaconda from https://www.anaconda.com/products/distribution
This will be enough for Day 1.
For Day 2 :
https://github.com/acgeospatial/GRSG_lunchtime/blob/main/01_GRSG_Setup_Env.md
or (for more upto date) follow
Download this environment.yml file (assumes environment is called course)
conda env create -f environment.yml activate course python -m ipykernel install --user --name=course
Folder structure
I’ll be using the following folder structure
D:/Python_Course
/Day1_Intro (code will be unzipped into here)
/Day2_Geo (code will be unzipped into here)
Data
Download the QGIS sample data https://download.qgis.org/downloads/data/
Day 1 – data_package_beg
Day 2 – Day2_Geo_data
Day 2 – ne_50m_admin_0_countries
unzip to
Day 1 – D:\Python_Course\Day1_Intro\data_package_beg
Day 2 – D:\Python_Course\Day2_Geo (into the root) – this is where the code will reside
