our experience installing on Windows 7

[mapmeld]

we had to try!

Got Python, NumPy, GDAL, Python-GDAL, OpenCV 2.x, R all installed, and got Python script to start working (i.e. we had all import lines working)

Got error "unknown option -50" from GIMP exe, even when we gave it path to gimp-console-2.8.exe. -50 is maybe coming from the brightness setting.

Do you have ideas how we could fix the GIMP batch script to work in Windows CLI? It looks like we just need to put more quotes around it so it doesn't get confused with regular CLI options: http://superuser.com/questions/536654/windows-batch-processing-images-with-gimp-and-saving-them-to-new-files

hmmm... maybe GIMP for Windows has a different way of passing command line parameters. do you get a py-log.txt file?

i just pushed a refactored version of the code. maybe it fixes this. if it doesn't now the GIMP path is a parameter. try passing it with quotes.

eg: python vectorize_map.py --gimp-path "c:\path\to\gimp.exe" test.tif
