Installing Cartopy

Cartopy can be used to plot results in maps. Installation of Cartopy is optional, and ITU-Rpy will still work without it. However, some plotting capabilities will be deactivated. A quick overview of Cartopy if provided below:

Cartopy is a Python package designed for geospatial data processing in order to produce maps and other geospatial data analyses. Cartopy has the ability to transform points, lines, vectors, polygons and images between different projections, and it can be combined with Matplotlib to plot contours, images, vectors, lines or points in the transformed coordinates.

To install Cartopy from pypi, please use the following command on the command line:

pip install cartopy

If that does not work, you can try to download it using conda:

conda -c conda-forge install cartopy

If you are using Windows, you can also install cartopy using the appropriate pre-compiled wheels file from this webpage. After downloading the .whl file, cartopy can be installed running:

pip install name_of_whl_file.whl
