System: Mac OSX
Im relatively new user of Python and currently exploring GIS. Trying to read a shape file with geopandas however I am getting: OSError: Could not find libspatialindex_c library file
Using Python 3.7 normally, but since there are dependencies issues with geopandas on this, followed advice here to run on Python2.
What i've done here is with mac terminal, created new environment with python2 and installed geopandas there and tried to read shape file.
conda create -n mytest python=2.7 geopandas -c conda-forge
source activate mytest
import geopandas
geopandas.read_file('Random_points_twitter.shp')
id xcoord ycoord data_twitt
0 0 5.27735 50.25398 0
1 1 3.29896 51.32356 1
2 2 3.29896 51.32356 2
I am successfully able to read this in terminal. But in the browser, it returns me an error.
What I've done was first install jupyter on my new env and got a notebook running on browser(code below)
(mytest) conda install jupyter
(mytest) jupyter-notebook
On browser with the new notebook,tried to import and read the shape file (similar to what i did in terminal) but it gives me this error:

My conda list (below) already has libspatial installed yet when running on Jupyter Notebook using browser gives me this error. Any ideas?
