Hi Ziran,

It definitely should have been in C:\Program Files\GeoEco\ArcGISToolbox. It not being there is cause for concern, and suggests that MGET is not installed correctly. We wrote that code pretty carefully to try to report an error message if somehow it failed. I’m not sure what happened.

The actual Python package is installed to ArcGIS’s Python directory. Assuming you want to run MGET from ArcGIS like most MGET users, then you should not have had to install Python yourself. Instead you should be using the copy that ArcGIS installed. If that was ArcGIS 10.8 then it is installed to C:\Python27\ArcGIS10.8. In that scenario, MGET is installed to C:\Python27\ArcGIS10.8\Lib\site-packages\GeoEco. The .tbx file that shows up in ArcGIS originates from C:\Python27\ArcGIS10.8\Lib\site-packages\GeoEco\ArcGISToolbox, but we copy that into C:\Program Files\GeoEco\ArcGISToolbox so that if you change ArcGIS versions (and thus the directory that MGET is installed in), then your geoprocessing diagrams will not necessarily break (because they reference C:\Program Files rather than a version specific directory, e.g. C:\Python27\ArcGIS10.8).

I hope this helps, but I’m not sure it does...

Best,

Jason

Hi,

I’m a grad student in stony brook university trying to process hdf data using the mget toolbox. I believe I’ve successfully installed the mget software on top of finishing installing python 2.7. I’m trying to add the toolbox to Arcgis but it is nowhere to be found in C:\Program Files\GeoEco\ArcGISToolbox instructed by the tutorial. I checked program files x86 as well. I tried removing and reinstalling python 2.7 and mget tool as well but even after being told that Mget tools is installed correctly I still could not find it in C:\Program Files\GeoEco\ArcGISToolbox. Any idea where I can find it?

Best,

Ziran
