Open-source, implicit 3D structural geological modeling in Python.
GemPy is a Python-based, open-source geomodeling library. It is capable of constructing complex 3D geological models of folded structures, fault networks and unconformities, based on the underlying powerful implicit representation approach.
We provide the latest release version of GemPy via PyPi package services. We highly recommend using PyPi,
$ pip install gempy
as it will take care of automatically installing all the required dependencies - except in windows that requires one extra step.
Windows does not have a gcc compilers pre-installed. The easiest way to get a aesara compatible compiler is by using the aesara conda installation. Therefore the process would be the following:
$ conda install aesara
$ pip install gempy
For more information, refer to the installation documentation.
The following versions are required/strongly recommended for the main dependencies of GemPy (as of June 2023):
- python=3.10
- pandas=2.0.1
- matplotlib>=3.7
- pyvista>=0.39
After installation, you can either check the notebook tutorials or the video introduction to get started.
Go to the documentation site for further information and enjoy the tutorials and examples.
For questions and support, please use discussions.
If you find a bug or have a feature request, create an issue.
