Geopandas import error

[KarenChen9999]

I used the geograpic data example and installation guide from hvplot (https://hvplot.holoviz.org/user_guide/Geographic_Data.html). I ran into an import error when calling

cities.hvplot(global_extent=True, frame_height=450, tiles=True)

The error I got:

/apps/opt/anaconda3/envs/geo_env/lib/python3.8/site-packages/hvplot/util.py in process_crs(crs)
    182         import pyproj
    183     except:
--> 184         raise ImportError('Geographic projection support requires GeoViews and cartopy.')
    185 
    186     if crs is None:

ImportError: Geographic projection support requires GeoViews and cartopy.

My geopandas version is 0.8.2. Is it not the comparable version? If so, how can i know which version of geopandas i should be use?

This message is not about geopandas but about other libraries. Following #299, can you try installing pyproj and see if that fixes it?

[KarenChen9999]

I reinstall all the packages using:
conda install -c pyviz geoviews hvplot pyproj geopandas pandas rasterio shapely fiona

so pyproj is also installed, when i run the code again

import geopandas as gpd
cities = gpd.read_file(gpd.datasets.get_path('naturalearth_cities'))
cities.hvplot(global_extent=True, frame_height=450, tiles=True)

   5463 
   5464     def __setattr__(self, name: str, value) -> None:

AttributeError: 'GeoDataFrame' object has no attribute 'hvplot'

is this the issue with geopandas or hvplot?

My package versions:
holoviews 1.14.1 py_0 pyviz
hvplot 0.7.0 py_0 pyviz
geopandas 0.8.1 py_0

It looks like you haven't done import hvplot.pandas, which is needed for .hvplot() to be available for Pandas and GeoPandas dataframes.
