Installation

Steps:

• clone the repository: git clone https://github.com/52North/WeatherRoutingTool.git

• change to the folder: cd WeatherRoutingTool

• [recommended] create and activate a virtual environment, e.g. - python3 -m venv "venv" - source venv/bin/activate

• install the WRT: pip install . && pip install --no-deps -r requirements-without-deps.txt or in editable mode (recommended for development) pip install -e . && pip install --no-deps -r requirements-without-deps.txt

The part pip install –no-deps -r requirements-without-deps.txt is necessary because of a dependency issue (see https://github.com/52North/WeatherRoutingTool/issues/8). We might implement a different solution in the feature making the installation easier/cleaner.

Power/fuel consumption framework

In order to get high-quality results, a suitable power/fuel modelling framework should be used as it is the core of any weather routing optimization. Please check the respective section of our documentation for more information as the installation of dedicated software might be necessary for your application.
