basemap is not found on pip for python3.4?
Hi:
I've recently tried to install basemap using pip on my fedora 23 in py3.4 virtual environment, but:
(py3.4) huziy at thinkpad in ~/Python/Projects/PyNotebooks on master*
$ pip install basemap
Collecting basemap
Could not find a version that satisfies the requirement basemap (from versions: )
No matching distribution found for basemap
(py3.4) huziy at thinkpad in ~/Python/Projects/PyNotebooks on master*
$ python
Python 3.4.3 (default, Jun 29 2015, 12:16:01)
[GCC 5.1.1 20150618 (Red Hat 5.1.1-4)] on linux
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
Which is weird, since it worked OK before...
Maybe the versions should be specified in the setup.py?
Cheers
What do you mean by 'before'? Did it used to work with 3.4 and now it does not?
Yes: I've used it with python3.4 before ...

This is a duplicate of #198 Basemap is to large to be hosted on Pypi so the package is hosted externally and new versions of pip no longer allows that pr default.
@jenshnielsen: so this stopped working for the recent pip?
$ pip3 install --allow-external basemap --allow-unverified basemap basemap
Collecting basemap
Could not find a version that satisfies the requirement basemap (from versions: )
No matching distribution found for basemap
Im not sure someone may also have removed the links to sourceforge from Pypi
It looks like allow external was removed from recent versions of pip: http://legacy.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0470/
Something like pip install https://github.com/matplotlib/basemap/archive/v1.0.7rel.tar.gz should work though.
According to the changelog for v1.1.0, basemap might be coming back to pip.
https://github.com/matplotlib/basemap/blob/master/Changelog
The 1.1.0 release appears to be imminent: https://github.com/matplotlib/basemap/issues/343
Just as another voice getting an unhelpful response by pip after a sudo -H pip3 install basemap, repeating the solution (by @aeroevan) that worked for me:
sudo -H pip3 install https://github.com/matplotlib/basemap/archive/v1.1.0.tar.gz
The --allow-external work-around only yielded red deprecation warnings. Beware of missing library dependencies, though: I had to install libgeos++-dev (found via this comment) in addition to the expected libgeos-dev.
I installed GEOS with pip3 install GEOS and then get this error
Can't find geos library in standard locations ('/var/root', '/var/root/local', '/usr', '/usr/local', '/sw', '/opt', '/opt/local').
Please install the corresponding packages using your
systems software management system (e.g. for Debian Linux do:
'apt-get install libgeos-3.3.3 libgeos-c1 libgeos-dev' and/or
set the environment variable GEOS_DIR to point to the location
where geos is installed (for example, if geos_c.h
is in /usr/local/include, and libgeos_c is in /usr/local/lib,
set GEOS_DIR to /usr/local), or edit the setup.py script
manually and set the variable GEOS_dir (right after the line
that says "set GEOS_dir manually here".
when using
sudo -H pip3 install https://github.com/matplotlib/basemap/archive/v1.1.0.tar.gz
so dependency management is still broken
@Kamik423: You have to compile GEOS or install it using your software manager (smth like "sudo apt install libgeos-dev")... I do not think pip is able to install GEOS library.
Cheers
There is a geos python package in pip))
geos (0.2.1) - Map server to view, measure and print maps in a web browserand to display maps as an overlay in google earth.
Probably it installs it and not the C++ library you need.
Cheers
ok, got it to work on Mac:
brew install geos
sudo -H pip3 install https://github.com/matplotlib/basemap/archive/v1.1.0.tar.gz
@Kamik423 I tried your solution and it looked like it worked, but when I attempt to import I get the following error:
In [1]: from mpl_toolkits.basemap import Basemap
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

@adesorme Perhaps pip and anaconda is creating a problem. I installed anaconda and it messes up my basemap and I had to reinstall it.
The repo is currently more than 1gb which makes it hard to justify including it as a dependency (which is a shame given how valuable this package is).
Is there something that could be done about this?
Just managed to install it on ubuntu on my py3 virtualenv:
sudo apt-get install libgeos-3.5.0 libgeos-c1v5 libgeos-dev
pip install https://github.com/matplotlib/basemap/archive/v1.1.0.tar.gz
You should verify the latest versions and change the numbers accordingly
you can install anaconda in your linux, and change the project interpreter under "/anaconda/bin/python/", it works on my computer. Before that ,I have tried many methods but no sense.
I installed on ubuntu 18 using following steps:
Step 1: update package listings
Step 2: install available/latest versions (type sudo apt-get install libgeos and hit tab to check which version is available)
Step 3: install package from archive
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install libgeos-3.6.2 libgeos-c1v5 libgeos-dev
pip3 install https://github.com/matplotlib/basemap/archive/v1.1.0.tar.gz
