I am trying to install GEOS 3.3.3 on my workstation. When I look at pypi (https://pypi.org/search/?q=geos), I only see versions up to 0.2.1. Do I need to install it from somewhere else?

1[Here](https://trac.osgeo.org/geos), I think. Version 3.3.3 is rather old — 2012 year. – phd Jan 30 '19 at 11:34

Thank you! These libraries were C++. Can they be used with python? Can I use it python directly, or do I need swig? – Jeanne Lane Jan 30 '19 at 18:43

I'm using geos with cartopy. – Jeanne Lane Jan 30 '19 at 18:44

1I believe they have Python bindings using `swig` right in the archive. – phd Jan 30 '19 at 19:02

If you are needing to setup GEOS for a python environment, you should check out Anaconda's python distribution environment. They provide pre-built GEOS for many platforms. https://anaconda.org/search?q=geos

Thank you! Is anaconda retrieving libraries from somewhere other than pypi? – Jeanne Lane Jan 31 '19 at 22:14

1anaconda is a separate entity from pypi. They have an elaborate build system that provides artifacts for people to use. – daryl Feb 01 '19 at 17:50
