``pywdpa`` Python package
*************************

Overview
========

The ``pywdpa`` Python package is an interface to the World Database on
Protected Areas (WDPA) hosted on the Protected Planet website at
`<https://www.protectedplanet.net>`_. The ``pywdpa`` package provides
functions to download shapefiles of protected areas (PA) for any
countries with an iso3 code using the Protected Planet API at
`<https://api.protectedplanet.net>`_. The ``pywdpa`` package
translates some functions of the R package ``worldpa``
(`<https://github.com/FRBCesab/worldpa>`_) in the Python language.

Terms and conditions
====================

You must ensure that the following citation is always clearly
reproduced in any publication or analysis involving the Protected
Planet Materials in any derived form or format:

..
   
    UNEP-WCMC and IUCN (\ ``YEAR``\ ) Protected Planet: The World
    Database on Protected Areas (WDPA). Cambridge, UK: UNEP-WCMC and
    IUCN. Available at: www.protectedplanet.net (dataset downloaded the
    ``YEAR/MONTH``\ ).


For further details on terms and conditions of the WDPA usage, please
visit the page: `<https://www.protectedplanet.net/en/legal>`_.

Prerequisites
=============

Access to Protected Planet API
------------------------------

This package uses the Protected Planet API to access data on world
protected areas. You must first have obtained a Personal API Token by
filling in the form available at
`<https://api.protectedplanet.net/request>`_. Then you need to set an
environment variable (we recommend using the name ``WDPA_KEY``\ )
using either the command ``os.environ["WDPA_KEY"]="your_token"`` or
`python-dotenv <https://github.com/theskumar/python-dotenv>`_.

GDAL
----

GDAL must be installed on your system.

To install GDAL on Windows, use the `OSGeo4W <https://trac.osgeo.org/osgeo4w/>`_ network installer. OSGeo4W is a binary distribution of a broad set of open source geospatial software for Windows environments (Windows 11 down to 7). Select *Express Install* and install GDAL. Several Gb of space will be needed on disk to install this programs. This will also install *OSGeo4W Shell* to execute command lines.

To install GDAL on other systems, use your package manager, for example ``apt`` for Debian/Ubuntu Linux distributions.

.. code:: shell

    sudo apt update
    sudo apt install gdal-bin libgdal-dev

After installing GDAL, you can test the installation by running ``gdalinfo --version`` in the command prompt or terminal, which should display the installed GDAL version.


Installation
============

The easiest way to install the ``pywdpa`` Python package is via `pip <https://pip.pypa.io/en/stable/>`_ in the *OSGeo4W Shell* for Windows or in a virtual environment for Linux.

For Linux, create and activate a virtual environment before install ``pywdpa`` with ``pip``:

.. code-block:: shell

   cd ~
   # Create a directory for virtual environments
   mkdir venvs
   # Create the virtual environment with venv
   python3 -m venv ~/venvs/venv-pywdpa
   # Activate (start) the virtual environment
   source ~/venvs/venv-pywdpa/bin/activate

Install Python dependencies and ``pywdpa`` in the *OSGeo4W Shell* or in the newly created virtual environment:
   
.. code-block:: shell
   
   # Upgrade pip, setuptools, and wheel
   python3 -m pip install --upgrade pip setuptools wheel
   # Install numpy
   python3 -m numpy
   # Install gdal Python bindings (the correct version)
   python3 -m pip install gdal==$(gdal-config --version)
   # Install pywdpa. This will install all other dependencies
   python3 -m pip install pywdpa

If you want to install the development version of ``pywdpa``, replace the last line with:

.. code-block:: shell

   python3 -m pip install https://github.com/ghislainv/pywdpa/archive/master.zip

To deactivate and delete the virtual environment:

.. code-block:: shell
		
   deactivate
   rm -R ~/venvs/venv-pywdpa # Just remove the repository

In case of problem while installing GDAL Python bindings, try the following command:

.. code-block:: shell
		
   python3 -m pip install  --no-cache-dir --force-reinstall gdal==$(gdal-config --version)
