  • @LeoLiu-MSFT it seem my VS2012 cant use the nuget package gdal cause it require nuget update 3.0 and above. So i just download the package from [GISInternal wbsite](https://www.gisinternals.com/) website and add reference to the VS2012. You then can try example from [here](https://svn.osgeo.org/gdal/trunk/gdal/swig/csharp/apps/). Also can refer [this](http://vipassanaandenvironmentalinformatics.blogspot.com/2013/03/getting-started-with-c-and-gdal.html). – ThingThing Dec 10 '18 at 03:40

Right on your project, select Manage NuGet Packages..., switch to the Browse tab in the open window, type gdal in the search bar, then click Install button:

If you install GDAL to your project you will get the .dll file you need and NuGet also automatically create a GdalConfiguration.cs that you call into to initialize the GDAL paths before starting. The only thing to note is the packages are setup to automatically copy their appropriate GDAL libraries to your output build directory. If you need to deploy the application you'll have to do a bit of extra effort.

enter image description here

Besides, you do not need to set up just like use in C++. For some more details info, please check following threads:

Hope this helps.

    It seems that installing only GDAL is not enough anymore, so you also need to install GDAL.Core package. If the config file does not get created you can call Gdal.AllRegister() to get it to work quickly. – gtu Jun 19 '21 at 20:51
  • @gtu's comment is a useful breadcrumb. However, my C# app is using .NET Framework 4.6, not .NET Core. Thus, for me the additional thing to install from the NuGet Package Manager was GDAL.Native instead of GDAL.Core. – Mike Finch Mar 26 '22 at 23:47
