Can not import osgeo and GDAL libraries

Question

I need the osgeo and GDAL libraries in python code. So, I imported them and I compiled to check whether they are installed or not (I'm not a python expert), and as expected the libraries do not exist. So, I tried to install it using the pycharm setting tools.

For the osgeo, I found two possibilities.

Django-osgeo-importer.
Django-osgeo-importer-client.

and the installation was successful. But for the GDAL I've got an error (see figure).

And I tried also to install the GDAL from the terminal and also I got this error:

anoir@anoir-Lenovo-IdeaPad-Y510P:~$ sudo -H pip install GDAL

----------------------------------------
Command "python setup.by egg_info" failed with error code 1 in /tmp/pip-build-5IPiZv/GDAL/

So I tried to follow this tutorial Installing GDAL/OGR on Ubuntu and it worked but when I compile the scripts the same problem persists.

Any ideas please?

'Unofficial Windows Binaries for Python Extension Packages'as webpage suggests for modules required.You must discuss a test as 'from osgeo import gdal,osr,ogr' after installation with pip install.By the way,I experienced a module error after shorttime of this type modules.So,you must install again same fileEkrem Erkuş,Geophysicist
