Pandas, PyGBIF, python-dwca-reader, ... others? Consult INBO team?

stijnvanhoey commented 5 years ago

I would certainly include the typical-3 data science essential stack:

[ ] numpy/scipy
[ ] matplotlib
[ ] pandas

With respect to plotting, I would add a few other packages:

[ ] seaborn
[ ] bokeh
[ ] altair

and focus on mapping options as well:

[ ] geopandas
[ ] cartopy
[ ] holoviews/geoviews

On the other hand, why not just provide miniconda in the box, so other packages can still be easily installed when necessury? miniconda is, in contradictrion to anaconda, lightweight.

niconoe commented 5 years ago

Miniconda is installed, and a base environment (with most packages already installed is created). Closing.
