RuntimeError: b'no arguments in initialization

问题:

I'm trying to solve my issue in my own but I couldn't, I'm trying to run this code in every format you can imagine and in ArcGIS pro software it's the same I can't find this error message in any other issue. From similar issues, it seems some data files could be missing?

import geopandas as gpd
import json
import numpy as np
from shapely.geometry import LineString, Point, box
import ast
from pyproj import Proj

paths = road_features.SHAPE.map(lambda x: np.array(ast.literal_eval(x)["paths"][0]))
pathLineStrings = paths.map(LineString)
gdf = gpd.GeoDataFrame(road_features,geometry=pathLineStrings)
#gdf.crs = {'init': 'epsg:3857'}
gdf.crs = {'init': 'epsg:4326'}

gdf = gdf.to_crs({'init': 'epsg:4326'})

i get this error

RuntimeError: b'no arguments in initialization list'

also i tried it in arcgis pro i got the same

回答1:

Is there an initial crs defined? I ran into the same problem only when I passed only the epsg command: gdf.to_crs('epsg:4326').

As you show

my_geoseries.crs = {'init' :'epsg:3857'}

should be the first step and then transforming to

gdf = gdf.to_crs({'init': 'epsg:4326'})

If you are working in ArcGIS you could also check in the properties whether the initial epsg is defined ?

great that was the answer thank you

回答2:

to make sure this is pyproj error rather than geopandas.

import pyproj
pyproj.Proj("+init=epsg:4326")

if above runtime error is the same, we can be sure this error is due to pyproj.

just conda remove pyproj and install it with pip.

pip install pyproj

at least this works for me.

Today(July 30), i resintalled from miniconda, conda remove pyproj did not work for me, instead i pip uninstall pyproj and pip install pyproj makes everything fine.
