SET HTTP_PROXY=http://login:password@proxy.example.com:8012
```

### Install the package

**A. Using pip online**

```
pip install <package>
```

**B. Using a .whl file**

Repository: [https://github.com/cgohlke/geospatial-wheels/releases](https://github.com/cgohlke/geospatial-wheels/releases)

```
pip install C:\Downloads\newpackage.whl
```

**C. Using a zip file (egg)**

1. Download the `.zip` and unzip
