No module named 'gdal'

[shanjiang1994]

To whom it may concern,

Recently I'm following the tutorial of Extracting buildings and roads from AWS Open Data using Amazon SageMaker

When setup all environments and run the notebook I found:
import libs.solaris as sol is not working.
bu all dependencies have already satisfied

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
ModuleNotFoundError                       Traceback (most recent call last)

I'm getting the same errors when running the Road-Network.ipynb notebook

I'm getting the same errors when running the Road-Network.ipynb notebook

I end up with the following actions. It may not be the best solution, but it temporarily works fine.

1. Locate the file aws-open-data-satellite-lidar-tutorial/libs/solaris/data/__init__.py
2. Delete or comment the import gdal
3. Locate the file aws-open-data-satellite-lidar-tutorial/libs/solaris/utils/geo.py
4. Delete or comment the import osr and gdal
5. Within the notebook, add a cell and run from osgeo import gdal
6. add a cell and run !pip install osr

Thanks @shanjiang1994, the steps worked for solving the issue

I fixed this issue which is caused by the improper importing of gdal and osr.
when using conda we must import both libraries from osgeo package.
