I have installed Anaconda (version 1.6.2) installed on my 64 bit machine. It comes with a great set of libraries, but I also need Basemap, part of matlibplot, but it is not included with the Anaconda install. I attempted to install Basemap and move the files in the Anacaonda\Lib\site-packages\mpl_toolkits directory since it is part of the mpl_toolkits library. However when I attempt to run a script, I keep getting the errors:
"No module named _geoslib"
"Cannot import pyproj"
I found the pyproj library. Do I need it? Where can I find geoslib? And how do I get Basemap to work?
What you nees is to change your path first, by:
$ export PATH=~/anaconda/bin:$PATH
and then,
$ conda install basemap
( I assumed you are in Linux)
source:http://docs.continuum.io/anaconda/faq.html
If your on Windows try installing Basemap from the Sourceforge executable, these should include GEOS and PROJ4 dependencies of Basemap.
I believe all that is needed is to update matplotlib, I just had this problem and doing this worked for me:
pip install --upgrade matplotlib

I am Windows and using python through jupyternotebook.
python 3.9.7, windows 64 bit,
I want to import geopandas, so I used the code conda install --channel conda-forge geopandas. It seemed work at first because I could successfully import geopandas without error, but when I want to run the following code, an import error appears.
world = gpd.read_file(gpd.datasets.get_path("naturalearth_lowres"))
world.columns
ImportError: the 'read_file' function requires the 'fiona' package, but it is not installed or does not import correctly.
Importing fiona resulted in: DLL load failed while importing ogrext
I saw other people asked the same questions, but none of their solutions worked. At first, I saw someone said nstalling geopandas by condas might installed wrong version of fiona and gdal. So I tried to update by conda update conda, and conda update -n base conda-package-handling and conda update --all. However, these code didn't work. Later, I directly installed the .whl file from python library: Fiona-1.8.20-cp39-cp39-win_amd64.whl and GDAL-3.4.1-cp39-cp39-win_amd64.whl, and use pip to install them. But the error still appeared.
I really have no idea how to deal with such issue, is it because the version of fiona and gdal was not consistent? Please give me some suggestions, thanks ahead!
I have solved this problem by creating a new environment followed this article: https://medium.com/analytics-vidhya/fastest-way-to-install-geopandas-in-jupyter-notebook-on-windows-8f734e11fa2b
This is the fast way to solve this problem.
I'm trying to display data using a pie chart in python, so i tried to install matplotlib using pip. After doing that, I tried importing matplotlib but I get an error: ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'matplotlib'.
In the Command Prompt I typed 'pip install matplotlib' and everything appeared to be successful. This is the last line:
Successfully installed backports.functools-lru-cache-1.5 cycler-0.10.0 kiwisolver-1.0.1 matplotlib-2.2.4 numpy-1.16.2 pyparsing-2.3.1 python-dateutil-2.8.0 pytz-2018.9 six-1.12.0
I've also tried 'python -m pip install -U matplotlib', but I still get a ModuleNotFoundError.
I've tried running the input statement in both python 3 and 2, neither worked.
I've looked at various different discussions on this, and none of them seemed to help me. How can I fix this?
There are various python installed in your OS. If you install matplotlib for somewhere the python that you are using does not search, you get importing errors. You should figure out which python you want to use and where the packages it searches.
check your python path. the matplotlib should be installed in the same path with your python environment.
I guess you use an IDE to run the python. some IDE have their own python environment.
if not solved. plz introduce some details about your system、how installed etc.
I installed python 3.7 on my pc (win 10). Later I tried to install matplotlib using a pip command, it installed and matplotlib is now also inside the pip list. When I go to the lib/site-packages folder where I saved python, it clearly has matplotlib inside of it. matplolib also works when us it in my command promt after using the 'python' command. But when I wanna import it in my project in pycharm, it does not work and no module is found.
I am new to all this and this is the first module I installed for python, so I can not figure out what I am doing wrong here. The version of matplotlib I am trying to install is 2.2.3.
Thx for any help
I have recently started using Python 3.5 and Anaconda on my Windows pc. I am trying to plot a map. However, When I am in my Jupyter notebook and i type the command
import mpl_toolkits.basemap
I get an error message saying 'no module name' 'mpl_toolkits.basemap'
However, I have the module downloaded and in the same C:\Users\Geena file as my .matplotlib, .ipython, .jupyter files, etc.
Anyone know how I can fix this?
I've had this issue with anaconda on my windows 7.
I found the way to fix it with python 3.5:
You need to run with administrator rights "Anaconda Prompt" and in "Anaconda Prompt" run following command:
conda install -c conda-forge basemap-data-hires=1.0.8.dev0
, it will show new packages that you need to install and will ask you to install it - say 'Yes'.
After that new packages will be installed and the issue "import mpl_toolkits.basemap" will be fixed.
Thank you.
Currently, basemap is not compatible with python 3 for windows users. So, if you try conda install basemap and you have python 3 installed in windows, you'll see a message pointing out that a conflict was found with python 3.
I solved this by installing a python 2.7 environment. Try this:
http://conda.pydata.org/docs/py2or3.html
Then you just activate the python 2 environment. For example: activate py27 (py27 is the identifier of my python 2.7 environment).
After that, you can run conda install basemap with no conflict.
I'm using python 3.6.4 on Windows 7 Family Premium (32bit).
Because I was a bit frustrated by the message "no module named 'mpl_toolkits.basemap'", I searched for and tried a dozen of solutions without success : various versions, building from source, problems with VS version, nmake, ... You all know what I mean ;-)
I finally found a quite simple solution that works perfectly well for me :-) Here it is !
from here I downloaded basemap‑1.1.0‑cp36‑cp36m‑win32.whl
I changed the current dir to my download dir
I installed the wheel with python -m pip basemap‑1.1.0‑cp36‑cp36m‑win32.whl
I did the same for matplotlib‑2.2.3‑cp36‑cp36m‑win32.whl
You DO read the versions correctly : matplotlib 2.2.3 and basemap 1.1.0
Everything works fine for me and I finally can plot OSM POI's on a map of Belgium, without any 'trickery' at import :
import requests # to fetch OSM data
import json # to get the response
from mpl_toolkits.basemap import Basemap # ... Belgium is there !
import numpy as np # for arrays
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt # to build the populated map
Big big thanks to Christoph Gohlke (Danke Dir Christoph !) who did all the wonderful job !
When you have Anaconda, you don't download modules anywhere. In your command prompt, you type
conda install basemap
and it is installed with all its dependencies.
Anaconda requires an unusual install command for basemap 1.0.7.
https://anaconda.org/anaconda/basemap
To install this package with conda run:
conda install -c https://conda.anaconda.org/anaconda basemap
I just had this issue as well. All you need to do is update matplotlib by doing the following:
pip install --upgrade matplotlib
mpl_toolkits is part of matplotlib and just needs to be updated.
If you're using anaconda, the easiest thing to do is described here: in the conda prompt (as admin), type conda install -c anaconda basemap.
For people of the future : "Basemap is deprecated in favor of the Cartopy project."

I am trying to install the MayaVi package using pip, but I keep getting an error message saying (ImportError: No module named vtk). How do I fix this problem?
So on command prompt:
$pip install mayavi
output
File "Tvtk\code_gen.py", line 10, in
import vtk
ImportError: No module named vtk
This has actually gotten a lot easier with the new wheel format and installation.
Make sure your python setup is wheel compatible (e.g. upgrade pip and 'pip install wheel') - you may need to google around for how to do that for certain distributions like Canopy.
Then just grab either the VTK and MAYAVI wheels or the MAYAVI+VTK wheel from the inestimable http://www.lfd.uci.edu/~gohlke/pythonlibs/#vtk
Right now for example you might choose: mayavi‑4.4.0+vtk610‑cp27‑none‑win32.whl
(assuming 32 bit install of cpython 2.7, the filenames encode important stuff and there are many options)
Then run pip install mayavi‑4.4.0+vtk610‑cp27‑none‑win32.whl
I just had the occasion to do this on a laptop that I hadn't set up with Mayavi yet and it ran smooth as silk and installed everything I needed without complaint. That was several steps smoother than the last time I had to install Mayavi on a windows machine.
From my recent experience, one possible reason is that vtk for windows is not installed prior to using mayavi.
however you can't do pip install vtk.
you can get vtk from here
also, remember to configure VC Express 2008 and Windows 7 SDK + .NET 3.5 to avoid additional errors.
