Installation¶
The EnMAP-Box is a plugin for QGIS and requires additional python packages that need to be installed independent from QGIS.

1. Install QGIS¶
Install QGIS version 3.4.0 or higher to run the EnMAP-Box. You can get QGIS here. Additional information on the installation process is provided in the QGIS Documentation.
In case you already have QGIS installed, you can skip this step.
2. Install required python packages¶
The EnMAP-Box requires the following python packages:
- numpy
- scipy
- scikit-learn
- matplotlib
- astropy (optional, relevant e.g. for certain filtering algorithms)
Follow the platform specific installation instructions below in order to install these packages.
Windows¶
Close QGIS, if it is open.
Activate the Python 3 environment by entering:
call py3_env.bat
Install required python packages by entering:
python3 -m pip install -r https://bitbucket.org/hu-geomatics/enmap-box/raw/develop/requirements.txt
Now all packages will be installed automatically. After completion, the shell should show something like this:
If the package installation was successful, you can close the shell. The required packages are installed now and you can continue to start/install the EnMAP-Box.
Error
In case you run into problems because pip is not available in your python environment (error message
C:/.../python3.exe: No module named pip
or similar), follow these steps…Optionally, also install astropy using pip in the OSGeo4W Shell:
python3 -m pip install astropy
