How to install geopandas properly?

Question

I am working with Python 3.8 on a macOS El Capitan 10.11.6

I have installed geopandas via pip

pip3 install geopandas

when I run

import geopandas as gpd

I get the following error

/usr/local/lib/python3.8/site-packages/geopandas/__init__.py in <module>

maybe [that](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/49969800/why-is-pip-installing-pillow-for-os-x-10-12-when-i-have-os-x-10-11-installed/49987984#49987984) will help. That is not an error about geopandas, it is about `Pillow` and `Mac OS` — Barış Çiçek, Nov 06 '20 at 11:29
@BarışÇiçek I have done it `pip3 install 'pillow!=5.1.0` and I get `Requirement already satisfied: pillow!=5.1.0 in /usr/local/lib/python3.8/site-packages (8.0.1)` — emax, Nov 06 '20 at 11:58
make sure you are using python in anaconda environment to use geopandas — Ratnapal Shende, Nov 06 '20 at 13:20
@RatnapalShende Using Anaconda is *not* a requirement for `geopandas`. Also I don't see how this is connected to pillow. The trace does not mention pillow nor do the [geopandas installation instructions](https://geopandas.org/install.html#installing-with-pip). As for the original question, it clearly says that there is a problem with `pyproj`. — Niko Föhr, Nov 06 '20 at 13:56
Have you tried reinstalling `pyproj`? What version or `pyproj` you are using? — Niko Föhr, Nov 06 '20 at 14:09
@np8 `pip3 install pyproj Requirement already satisfied: pyproj in /usr/local/lib/python3.8/site-packages (3.0.0.post1) Requirement already satisfied: certifi in /usr/local/lib/python3.8/site-packages (from pyproj) (2020.6.20)` — emax, Nov 06 '20 at 14:36
