The documentation is still being improved, so if a tutorial you need isn't there yet, check back soon or post an issue!

Installation Instructions

coming soon: One-command installation from conda-forge.

We recommend creating a conda environment with the dependencies defined in environment.yml before installing solaris. After cloning the repository:

cd solaris

If you're installing on a system with GPU access:

conda env create -n solaris -f environment-gpu.yml

Otherwise:

conda env create -n solaris -f environment.yml

Finally, regardless of your installation environment:

conda activate solaris
pip install .

pip

The package also exists on PyPI, but note that some of the dependencies, specifically rtree and gdal, are challenging to install without anaconda. We therefore recommend installing at least those dependency using conda before installing from PyPI.

conda install -c conda-forge rtree gdal=2.4.1
pip install solaris

If you don't want to use conda, you can install libspatialindex, then pip install rtree. Installing GDAL without conda can be very difficult and approaches vary dramatically depending upon the build environment and version, but the rasterio install documentation provides OS-specific install instructions. Simply follow their install instructions, replacing pip install rasterio with pip install solaris at the end.

Dependencies

All dependencies can be found in the requirements file ./requirements.txt or environment.yml
