🛰️ Join the community for more Python, GEE & GIS tutorials: / @geospatialflowgismaps
In this video, we set up our local development environment and build the professional project structure that will power our WebGIS application.
This is the foundation phase before connecting to Google Earth Engine and cloud deployment.
This video covers
⏱️ Timestamps:
00:00 - Introduction-Local setup
00:28 - Installing and verifying Python
01:08 - Setting up Visual Studio Code
01:43 - Installing essential extensions
02:19 - Creating a clean and scalable project structure
02:50 - The Virtual Environment (venv) and activation
03:38 - Installing the Library Stack (pip install flask earthengine-api) and requirements.txt
04:19 - Creating core files app.py and config.py for the upcoming Earth Engine connection
💻 Quick Setup Commands
Use these commands in your terminal:
Check Python Version
python --version
Install Required libraries
pip install earthengine-api flask
The project folder should look like this:
webGIS-app/
├── app.py
├── config.py
├── requirements.txt
└── venv/
All project code for this tutorial series is available here:
GitHub Repository: https://github.com/SMV09/earth-engine...
Note: Frontend folders like templates/ will be added in later videos when we begin UI development.
This series is designed for learning and research purposes using the non-commercial Earth Engine quota.
