## Development Source

The main repository for GDAL is located on GitHub at https://github.com/OSGeo/GDAL.

You can obtain a copy of the active source code by issuing the following command

    git clone https://github.com/OSGeo/GDAL.git

Additional information is available about Build requirements and Building GDAL from source.

## Binaries

In this section we list a number of the binary distributions of GDAL all of which should have fully reproducible open source build recipes.

Note that the maintainers of those distributions are generally not the maintainers of the GDAL sources, so please report any issue specific to those builds through their own support channels.

### Windows

Windows builds are available via Conda Forge (64-bit only). See the Conda section for more detailed information.

### Debian

Debian packages are now available on Debian Unstable.

### Conda

Conda can be used on multiple platforms (Windows, macOS, and Linux) to install software packages and manage environments. Conda packages for GDAL are available at https://anaconda.org/conda-forge/gdal.

Latest version:

    conda install [-c channel] [package...]

    conda install -c conda-forge gdal

To install the Arrow and Parquet drivers as plugins:

    conda install -c conda-forge libgdal-arrow-parquet

#### GDAL master Conda builds

GDAL master builds are available in the gdal-master channel. They are based on dependencies from the `conda-forge` channel.

First, install mamba into the `base` environment, create a dedicated `gdal_master_env` environment, and then activate the dedicated `gdal_master_env` environment.

    conda update -n base -c conda-forge conda
    conda install -n base --override-channels -c conda-forge mamba 'python_abi=*=*cp*'
    conda create --name gdal_master_env
    conda activate gdal_master_env

Then install GDAL from the `gdal-master` channel:

    mamba install -c gdal-master gdal
    mamba install -c gdal-master libgdal-arrow-parquet # if you need the Arrow and Parquet drivers

### Vcpkg

The gdal port in vcpkg is kept up to date by Microsoft team members and community contributors. The url of vcpkg is: https://github.com/Microsoft/vcpkg . You can download and install gdal using the vcpkg dependency manager:

    git clone https://github.com/Microsoft/vcpkg.git
    cd vcpkg
    ./bootstrap-vcpkg.sh  # ./bootstrap-vcpkg.bat for Windows
    ./vcpkg integrate install
    ./vcpkg install gdal

If the version is out of date, please create an issue or pull request on the vcpkg repository.

### Spack

Spack is a package management tool designed to support multiple versions and configurations of software on a wide variety of platforms and environments. It was designed for large supercomputing centers. Spack builds packages from sources, and allows tweaking their configurations.

You can find information about GDAL in Spack at https://spack.readthedocs.io/en/latest/package_list.html#gdal

For the default GDAL build with a reduced number of drivers:

    git clone -c feature.manyFiles=true https://github.com/spack/spack.git
    cd spack/bin
    ./spack install gdal

For a build with netcdf driver enabled:

    ./spack install gdal +netcdf

### Linux Docker images

Images with nightly builds of GDAL master and tagged releases are available at GitHub Container registry

Information on the content of the different configurations can be found at https://github.com/OSGeo/gdal/tree/master/docker
