# SETUP: DO THIS FIRST

1. Download and install the newest version of Python (if it is not already installed): <https://www.python.org/downloads/>.
2. Download and install Anaconda3 (Windows OS guide [HERE](https://problemsolvingwithpython.com/01-Orientation/01.03-Installing-Anaconda-on-Windows/)).
3. Write down the installation path for Anaconda3 as you will need it later to run the scripts. An example is "C:\Users\MAPIR\Anaconda3\\".
4. Open Anaconda Prompt (which is installed with Anaconda3)
5. Run the following command to install the necessary Python libraries to run the scripts:

```
pip install glob3 numpy opencv-contrib-python Pillow ExifRead matplotlib imutils rasterio
```

If any of the above packages are not able to be installed you may need to update using the Anaconda Navigator GUI:
