Update GSSHA workflows

[kcpevey]

The GSSHA workflows need to be updated for the latest packages. I ran into a variety of errors when I ran through them.

I'm assigning this to myself as a back-burner task, but @dharhas or @kajiglet can feel free to direct it elsewhere.

The GSSHA workflows need to be updated for the latest packages. I ran into a variety of errors when I ran through them.

To be clear, are you seeing regressions in the HoloViews/GeoViews/EarthSim code or in gsshapy/quest or one of the other ERDC maintained libraries?

I'm just looking into this, but at the moment, it looks like its going to be on ERDC's end. The first thing I ran into was the yml and conda install -c conda-forge gsshapy both chose to install gsshapy=2.1.1 which is not compatible with the earthsim example notebooks. I had to pin the version number which updated and downgraded other packages:

$ conda install -c conda-forge gsshapy=2.3.8
Solving environment: ...working... done

## Package Plan ##
  environment location: C:\ProgramData\Anaconda3\envs\ers
  added / updated specs:
    - gsshapy=2.3.8

The following NEW packages will be INSTALLED:
    gazar:      0.0.4-py35_0               conda-forge
    gsshapy:    2.3.8-py35_0               conda-forge
    pangaea:    0.0.4-py35_0               conda-forge
    utm:        0.4.2-py35_0               conda-forge
    wrapt:      1.10.11-py35_0             conda-forge
    wrf-python: 1.1.3-py35_0               conda-forge

The following packages will be UPDATED:
    numba:      0.37.0-np113py35h23266ec_0             --> 0.37.0-np114py35h6c8877a_0
    numpy:      1.13.3-py35h5c71026_4                  --> 1.14.2-py35h5c71026_1

The following packages will be DOWNGRADED:
    h5py:       2.7.1-py35_3               conda-forge --> 2.7.1-py35_2               conda-forge

I'm not familiar enough with conda packaging to know why it didn't choose the more recent version. @dharhas might be able to address that from our end. Or maybe we just need to pin the yml?

Things to address in GSSHA_Workflow.ipynb:

• [ ] rm -r ./vicksburg_south/ not valid syntax via Windows ipynb (change to shutil.rmtree('/vicksburg_south', ignore_errors=True))
• [x] no *.ele data in the data folder (may not actually be required)
• [x] ERROR:stevedore.extension:Could not load 'kitware-girder': No module named 'girder_client'
• [x] ERROR:stevedore.extension:Could not load 'cuahsi-hydroshare': No module named 'hs_restclient'
• [x] INFO:rasterio._base:Failed to auto identify EPSG: 7
• [x] Cannot draw because of projection issues (possibly related to the above). It is trying to use _EPSGProjection(32615)
• [x] Switch from paramnb widgets to parambokeh widgets

The stevedore issues should be related to quest. I'll have Aaron Valoroso assist.
