Hi, You need to have the gdal binaries installed before pip install gdal will work. Specifically, pip install gdal installs the python bindings for gdal.
In my opinion on mac, the easiest way is to install gdal via homebrew. Then the configuration utility gdal-info should be on the path and pip install GDAL should work https://pypi.org/project/GDAL/ Going the homebrew route for gdal will ensure you have everything needed for gdal to work and avoids the complication of having to compile gdal yourself. Personally, I use gdal from base homebrew and then use this repackaging of the python gdal bindings. I've found it to be more reliable with venvs. https://github.com/nextgis/pygdal Both methods should work though, Cheers Chris
