Bane Sullivan

I’m Bane, co-creator and maintainer of PyVista and a few other tools in the scientific-Python and geospatial visualization ecosystem. For years I’ve been committed to making 3D and geospatial data easy to work with in Python by building intuitive visualization APIs and helping thousands of researchers, engineers, and developers analyze complex datasets.

Open-source is one of my life passions. I review issues, fix bugs, write features, help users troubleshoot tough problems across all the libraries I contribute to. My work focuses on PyVista (cross domain 3D visualization) and my hobby project localtileserver (large geospatial raster visualization).

If my contributions to PyVista or other libraries save you time, power your research, support your company’s workflows, or if you simply want priority help with a tricky visualization problem, sponsoring me directly supports the continued development and maintenance of these projects.

Thank you for helping sustain the open-source work that enables so much of the scientific and engineering community.
