# ✈ HELIOS ++ [](https://zenodo.org/badge/latestdoi/331344393) [](https://github.com/3dgeo-heidelberg/helios/issues) [](https://github.com/3dgeo-heidelberg/helios/blob/main/LICENSE.md) [](https://github.com/3dgeo-heidelberg/helios/commits) [](https://github.com/3dgeo-heidelberg/helios/releases) [](https://github.com/3dgeo-heidelberg/helios/actions) > Heidelberg LiDAR Operations Simulator ++  HELIOS++ is a general-purpose Python package for simulation of terrestrial, mobile and airborne laser scanning surveys written in C++11. It is developed and maintained by the [3DGeo Research Group](https://uni-heidelberg.de/3dgeo) at Heidelberg University. ## 💻 Installation ### Conda installation The recommended way to install HELIOS++ is via the [conda package manager](https://docs.conda.io/en/latest/). The following software is required for installation of HELIOS++: * a Conda installation. We recommend [mamba](https://mamba.readthedocs.io/en/latest/installation/mamba-installation.html), [micromamba](https://mamba.readthedocs.io/en/latest/installation/micromamba-installation.html), or [miniconda](https://docs.anaconda.com/free/miniconda/). HELIOS++ can then be installed with: ```bash conda install -c conda-forge helios ``` ### Standalone Installer You can also install HELIOS++ via the standalone installers available for Windows, Linux and MacOS. They will not only install HELIOS++ but also add shortcuts for a) a H++ terminal session and b) a H++ Jupyter session. Download the correct installer for your operating system from the [release page](https://github.com/3dgeo-heidelberg/helios/releases) and run it (under Windows, this is a setup wizard, under Linux and MacOS, it is a shell script). ### Development installation If you intend to contribute to the development of HELIOS++, we recommend a locally compiled version using these instructions: ```bash git clone https://github.com/3dgeo-heidelberg/helios.git cd helios conda env create -f environment-dev.yml conda activate helios-dev # On Linux, the following line is recommended, to go with a Conda-provided compiler. # We had issues with incompatible system compilers before. conda install -c conda-forge gcc gxx python -m pip install --no-build-isolation --config-settings=build-dir="build" -v -e . ``` This will install the HELIOS++ Python package in editable mode and expose the CMake build directory used as `build` (adapt as needed). Additional CMake variables can be passed with e.g. `--config-settings=cmake.define.BUILD_TESTING="ON"`. ## ℹ Documentation As a starting point, please consult the [wiki](https://github.com/3dgeo-heidelberg/helios/wiki/First-steps). We suggest you take the "first steps" tour to get to know the core concepts of the software.
