Same issue. I think I fixed it by installing geos with brew and then setting the GEOS_DIR to /opt/homebrew/Cellar/geos/3.12.0 (the version that I installed) before re-trying pip install lida.

Hi @klauern ,

Thanks for noting this. I just updated the library to optionally install basemap e.g.pip install lida[tools].
So going forward, basemap should not be required. (basemap is only needed when lida suggests visualization code that includes maps).

pip install lida==0.0.8

I installed geos using brew, but it didn't help. I had to set GEOS_DIR, like @klauern wrote above. To make it work on every configuration type export GEOS_DIR=$(brew --prefix geos), then pip install lida.
