The setup.py doesn't include a reference to the gdal package

Note: Some of the new TopoFlow utilities use a Python package version of GDAL. At the time of this writing, installing gdal from the conda-forge with conda install -c conda-forge gdal did not work.

@peckhams Regarding the CHIRPS data, should I use the GDAL from pypi?

You have to manually add GDAL and osr to the path a quick fix is to use

from osgeo import gdal, osr

sys.modules["gdal"] = gdal
sys.modules["osr"] = osr
