Hello experts,
I am getting this error while trying to run the package/tool in Spyder. The pyproj version is 3.6.0, gdal = 3.6.2 and python 3.11.4. Any ideas why this is happening

Please provide information about your system, how you installed pyproj, and the complete traceback of the import error. My best guess is that pyproj was not installed properly. Pyproj includes C extensions that must be compiled when installing from the source code or you must install a binary wheel compatible with your system where the extensions are pre-built. If you used pip to install pyproj then by default it should have tried to find a pre-built wheel compatible with your system.

Hi, thanks for writing back. The issue has been resolved. I made three changes.
1- I updated the Pyproj package through the pip installer.
2- Added a PROJ_LIB environment variable
3- Previously, I had a separate installation of GDAL to which the GDAL_DATA environment variable was connected to. I changed the address to the one located in Anaconda\Library installation
