Install Catenivo

Catenivo is distributed for Windows x64 and Linux x86_64. Ubuntu Desktop 24.04 LTS x64 is the tested Linux reference distribution.

Windows

Download Catenivo_<version>_x64-setup.exe from the GitLab release provided by Geonov and run it.

The installer can add the Catenivo CLI to your user PATH. This is useful when running workflows from PowerShell, scripts or Windows Task Scheduler.

Windows binaries are currently not signed with a paid Authenticode certificate. Windows may therefore display a reputation warning on first installation. Verify the file origin and its SHA-256 before running it.

Linux

Two formats are provided.

Debian package

On Ubuntu 24.04 LTS x64:

sudo apt install ./Catenivo_<version>_amd64.deb

The desktop application is then available from the desktop menu and through the catenivo command. This command starts the desktop; the standalone Linux CLI is not installed by the 0.85 package.

AppImage

chmod +x Catenivo_<version>_amd64.AppImage
./Catenivo_<version>_amd64.AppImage

The AppImage does not require a separate GDAL or QGIS installation: Catenivo ships its own private spatial runtime.

Verify the download

Compare the downloaded file's SHA-256 with the hash published for the corresponding Catenivo release.

On Windows:

Get-FileHash .\Catenivo_<version>_x64-setup.exe -Algorithm SHA256

On Linux:

sha256sum Catenivo_<version>_amd64.deb
sha256sum Catenivo_<version>_amd64.AppImage

Then continue with Getting started.
