Am operating on OSX(latest) have gdal installed and rasterio (both from conda versions 2.1.3 and 1.0xxx. I can read tiff perfectly but jp2 files (aka from Sentinel-2 sat).
When I search for installed gdal drivers the ones for jp2 are on the list. I have attempted to remove gdal via conda and reinstall with no luck. Am not looking to use brew as it has a pre 2.0 version and i need 2.1 functionality.
How can i install this driver?
The GDAL installed by conda is broken and does not include the OpenJPEG JPEG2000 driver. You need to install the GDAL packaged by conda-forge Either uninstall GDAL and then reinstall using the conda-forge channel or create a fresh environment. If you choose to uninstall/reinstall, you will almost certainly get lots of dependency conflicts and have to mess around resolving them. It's much easier to create a fresh conda environment:
conda create -n mynewenv -c conda-forge gdal rasterio
If someone uses macports to install GDAL, use the openjpeg variant which is not added by default. Note that it will probably trigger a build from source (might take a few minutes).
sudo port install gdal +openjpeg
