Python packages

[fjlopezandreu]

At the beginning of the first part of the workshop, when running the imports in Jupyter Notebook, it reports errors related to matplotlib and cartopy.

With matplotlib the error refers to Pillow and it is because it is not updated pip:

• python3 -m pip install --upgrade pip
• python3 -m pip install --upgrade matplotlib

Installing cartopy from the github repository does not work, apparently because of an old version of python. In my case I solved it with:

• pip3 install Cartopy
• pip3 install scipy

Finally, I have also found a problem in cartopy related to the shapely library. I solved it with the following commands:

• pip uninstall shapely
• pip install shapely --no-binary shapely
