How to process GeoTiff images in Fabric?

Hi parvgeet,

rasterio can be tricky in Fabric because it depends on native GDAL libraries under the hood, not just pure Python packages. In many cases, the package installation fails even if the Python dependency itself looks valid.

A common approach is to :

• store the GeoTIFF files in OneLake/Lakehouse
• process them through Spark notebooks
• and try installing compatible versions of rasterio, GDAL, or alternatives like rioxarray / xarray

You may also want to check whether the issue comes from :

• unsupported wheel format
• missing native dependencies or runtime compatibility with the current Fabric Spark environment.

Another option is to preprocess the GeoTIFFs externally (Databricks, local environment, Azure ML, etc.) and then load the processed outputs into Fabric.

Hope this helps a bit 🙂
