I was trying to install gdal in python 3.6.1, but getting the following error. How to overcome this?
bibinwilson ~ $ pip3 install gdal

I had this error and installing GDAL through Homebrew fixed this for me. Installing the the binaries for GDAL didn't correct the error but once I installed through brew it was resolved.
brew install gdal
seems like the same issue as here: Python GDAL: pip install --no-install GDAL fails
If you've already installed the binaries (like I had) then this answer worked for me: https://stackoverflow.com/a/44051123/3969685

This simple procedure seemed to work for me on MAC sierra, python 3.6, GDAL 2.2.3
1) Install GDAL framework using dmg installer for MAC [GDAL MAC Frameworks]: http://www.kyngchaos.com/software/frameworks
2) Add gdal-config folder to your path and get your version:
$ export PATH=/Library/Frameworks/GDAL.framework/Versions/2.2/Programs:$PATH
$ gdal-config --version
3) Use pip to install the version reported by gdal-config --version:
$ pip install gdal==2.2.3
Step 1 Seems to set up the python site-packages under its install framework folders and I think you could copy them to your python site-packages. But better to use pip install.
