Quick starting guide #

Install Anaconda #

Start with the AFEIM GUI by downloading and installing the latest version of Anaconda from https://www.anaconda.com/products/individual.

Once downloaded, open Anaconda Navigator. From there, it’s recommended to create a dedicated virtual environment for your project. You can launch it through Jupyter Notebook or open Anaconda Prompt by running the followin0g commands (as in python, the # indicates a comment that should NOT be copy and pasted over/executed:

(base) C:\>activate AFEIM  # name of your virtual environment to replace AFEIM
(AFEIM) C:\>jupyter notebook

This will launch Jupyter Notebook in your browser.

Alternatively, if no virtual environment exists yet or you would like to create a new virtual environment specifically for this GUI, you can create one by running this command:

(base) C:\> conda create -n AFEIM
# AFEIM here can be replaced with a name of your choice for the virtual environment-–it can also be kept at AFEIM

Install required libraries #

After activating the environment, install AFEIM by running:

pip install git+http://xxxxxx.git

Replace ‘http://xxxxxx.git’ with the actual AFEIM repository link. Install additional dependencies like GDAL and C++ build tools if required by running:

conda install gdal

Test the AFEIM installation #

Once you successfully installed libraries, you can run this command in your Jupyter notebook or Python environment.
