This is the error I receive:
A GDAL API version must be specified. Provide a path to gdal-config using a GDAL_CONFIG environment variable or use a GDAL_VERSION environment variable.
after running the command:
pip install Fiona
from the command line. I had to install GDAL manually from a wheel file found here (python 3.7 32bit): https://www.lfd.uci.edu/~gohlke/pythonlibs/#gdal
I have looked for a solution to this but the suggested solution is to uninstall and reinstall GDAL through Conda, and I am unable to use Conda.
If anyone could tell me simply where the gdal-config
file is that would be fantastic so I can add it to my environment variables. A solution is also very welcome.
This doesn't show where the gdal-config file is, but solves your fiona issue.
First download the relevant wheel file (looks like Fiona‑1.8.4‑cp37‑cp37m‑win32.whl is what you're after and it's available at the site you linked: https://www.lfd.uci.edu/~gohlke/pythonlibs/#fiona).
Then use this command (changing the path to where you file is):
pip install C:/path/to/Fiona‑1.8.4‑cp37‑cp37m‑win32.whl
