I've been using the great Shapely/Fiona combo successfully on Linux, but now i need to create a kind of production environment on windows and theres only one problem. When i try to import fiona, i get the following error:
if i try to check dependancies of the ogrext.pdy using dependancy walker, it seems it is trying to load GDAL version 1.10 dll and fails. Strangely though, i have GDAL 1.9.2 installed and it seems to import into python without a problem (from osgeo import gdal). So maybe its not even related to the fiona import issue. Also, im 100% i downloaded the fiona installer for python 2.7 since i know issues can arise if you use .pyd files intended for a different version of python.
Note, im using a standalone installation of python 2.7.5, without using osgeo4w installer.

This ongoing issue used to be caused by Fiona being incompatible with GDAL, but Fiona has been updated, so the below answers may be more relevant.
Fiona 1.8.9 supports GDAL 3.0
