Description

# ✨ Feature Request
Given the capabilities that GDAL provides, and that we want to encourage people to use existing tools rather than re-inventing wheels, should we have the optional GDAL components in our environments?

## Requirements
Add `libgdal` package to the environment.yml to include all GDAL optional components. See the [GDAL docs](https://gdal.org/en/stable/download.html#conda)
