Many dependencies #23

There are many dependencies, in particular a lot of geo-related libraries because of osmnx. We should check if we can remove some of them.

osmnx and cartopy have been moved to extras_require to make installation easier. Still, we might find a way to replace osmnx by our own implementation of network download. This recent workshop held on the openmod may help: https://forum.openmod-initiative.org/t/workshop-proposal-creating-data-sets-from-openstreetmap/1784

To summarize what can be drawn from the presentation: There are different python libraries that help download osm data:

DLR develops another library for that purpose: https://gitlab.com/dlr-ve-esy (GPL-3)

Okay, the issue of many dependencies is solved (for now).

But the comment above is still very relevant, however the issue name is misleading now. Should this go into a separate issue?

jnnr commented 3 years ago

We still have the links as a reference. This issue is resolved, so i close.
