Getting Started

Note

Scigeoh5 Package is integrated to Geoscience ANALYST Pro Geophysics and Pro Geology. Users of these packages can skip this section.

In this section, we will guide you through the installation of SciGeoh5 and it’s dependencies inside a conda environment.

Installation

Install Conda

Install Conda for Python 3.10 or higher. Follow this Miniforge link to download its Windows installer (~140 MB of disk space):

Registering the Conda distribution as the default Python 3.10 interpreter is optional. Preferably uncheck that box if you already have Python 3 installed on your system.

Note

We recommend installing Miniforge: beyond being smaller, it also installs packages from the conda-forge repository by default, which has no restriction for commercial use, while both Miniconda and Anaconda distributions use the Anaconda repository by default: see Anaconda Terms of Service for details. In any case, the installation of SciGeoh5 forces the usage of the conda-forge repository, and is thus not affected by the Anaconda Terms of Service.

Install SciGeoh5

To install the SciGeoh5 package and its dependencies, simply run the install.bat script included in the package.
