I'm trying to uninstall the Kyngchaos' gdal framework but still haven't been able to find a way to do it.

It seems there is no info at Kyngchaos website so any help will be highly appreciated.

I found out that the ReadMe.rtf of the installation .dmg has the instructions of how to uninstall each framework.

In case of GDAL 2.2 the instructions are:

Drag GDAL.framework, GEOS.framework, PROJ.framework, SQLite3.framework and UnixImageIO.framework from /Library/Frameworks to the Trash. Also trash /Library/Application Support/GDAL and ~/Library/Application Support/GDAL (if it exists).

Run these commands in a Terminal:

sudo pkgutil --forget org.gdal.gdal22-framework-yosemite

sudo pkgutil --forget net.refractions.geos-framework-yosemite

sudo pkgutil --forget org.maptools.proj-framework-yosemite

sudo pkgutil --forget org.sqlite.sqlite3-framework-yosemite

sudo pkgutil --forget com.kyngchaos.UnixImageIO-framework-F-yosemite

Python

Use pip to uninstall the python components:

sudo pip3 uninstall gdal

sudo pip3 uninstall proj

sudo pip3 uninstall shapely

Adding to @Guillermo's answer. The frameworks are hidden, to access them on MacOS, enter Cmd + Shift + G from finder then /Library/Frameworks enter
