Installation for skysat_stereo

  • We use srtm4 package, which for now needs developer version of libtiff
  • So first of all, install libtif on your machine using: apt-get install libtiff-dev for Ubuntu or brew install libtiff for (macOS)
  • Download Ames Stereo Pipeline (v 3.2.0) executables from here). Untar the downloaded file, and add the bin folder in the untarred folder to your .bashrc profile.
  • Clone the skysat_stereo repo to the location of your choice using https://github.com/uw-cryo/skysat_stereo.git
  • We recommend using conda for managing packages. Powerusers can have a look at the environment.yml file in the github repository to make an environment using that.
  • Otherwise, one can simply initiate a conda environment to avoid conflicts using the environment.yml file.
  • Run the command conda env create skysat_stereo/environment.yml. This will create a new environemnt skysat_stereo containing all dependencies.
  • Each time a new terminal is opened, activate the environment using conda activate skysat_stereo.
  • Activate the skysat_stereo environment, and install the repository in editable command: pip install -e skysat_stereo/
  • This will install all library files (the fancy apis), to run the command line calls, these scripts need to added path.
  • To use the command line executables located in the scripts directory of skysat_stereo directory, add the skysat_stereo/scripts/ path to your .bashrc as well. A guide on how to add paths to your .bashrc can be found here.
  • If any of this sounds confusing, please refer to this guide which has tricks for installing packages/enivronment using conda for new users.
