Installation¶

Prerequisites¶

landlensdb requires PostgreSQL (≥ 14) and PostGIS (≥ 3.5). You should also have Python ≥ 3.10. PostGIS is an extension that adds spatial types to PostgreSQL, enabling geospatial queries and storage.

PostgreSQL and PostGIS¶

Using conda (recommended)

conda create -n landlensdb_env -c conda-forge postgresql postgis
conda activate landlensdb_env

Remember to initialize and start the PostgreSQL server before using landlensdb. Once your database is up, enable PostGIS in your database:

CREATE EXTENSION postgis;

Using system packages (example: Ubuntu/Debian)

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install postgresql postgresql-contrib postgis

Then enable PostGIS in PostgreSQL as shown above.
