Python Setup
Python Setup
NOTE: These setup procedures are only needed when running outside of ArcGIS Pro. The ArcGIS installation comes with a fully functional python environment compatible with the DRC.
Windows, Linux, and Mac users can use the conda distribution of their choice. Click below for setup instructions to get started.
Anaconda is a distribution of the Python and R programming languages for scientific computing. Anaconda aims to simplify package management and deployment.
Miniconda is an alternative to the full Anaconda distribution. It is a smaller version of Anaconda that includes conda, Python, and the packages they need to run.
For more information about conda see the links below:

Anaconda is the full conda distribution, whereas Miniconda takes a minimalist approach.
