Hi there! I'm Kyle 👋

I'm a software engineer passionate about fast, interoperable geospatial data science.

I'm primarily developing the Apache Arrow, GeoArrow and GeoParquet ecosystems to make that a reality.

Python:

Project Role Description
lonboard author Python library for fast, interactive geospatial vector data visualization in Jupyter.
geoarrow-rust author A Python library implementing the GeoArrow specification with efficient spatial operations.
arro3 author A minimal Python library to manage Apache Arrow data
geoindex-rs author Fast, memory-efficient 2D spatial indexes for Python.
geopolars author Geospatial extensions for the Polars DataFrame library.
suncalc-py author A Python port of suncalc.js for calculating sun position and sunlight phases.
pymartini author A Cython port of Martini for fast RTIN terrain mesh generation.
pydelatin author Python bindings to hmm for fast terrain mesh generation.
quantized-mesh-encoder author A fast Python Quantized Mesh encoder
usgs-topo-tiler author Python package to read Web Mercator map tiles from USGS Historical Topographic Maps
keplergl_cli author One-line geospatial data visualization using Kepler.gl

JavaScript:

Project Role Description
parquet-wasm author Rust-based WebAssembly bindings to read and write Apache Parquet data.
@geoarrow/deck.gl-layers author deck.gl layers for rendering GeoArrow data.
geoarrow-wasm author Efficient, vectorized geospatial operations in WebAssembly.
arrow-js-ffi author Zero-copy reading of Arrow data from WebAssembly.
geoarrow-js author TypeScript implementation of GeoArrow.
deck.gl contributor WebGL2 powered visualization framework.
deck.gl-raster author deck.gl layers and WebGL modules for client-side satellite imagery analysis.

Rust:

Project Role Description
geoarrow-rs author A Rust implementation of the GeoArrow specification and bindings to GeoRust algorithms for efficient spatial operations on GeoArrow memory.
pyo3-arrow author Lightweight Apache Arrow integration for pyo3.
geo-index author A Rust crate for packed, static, zero-copy spatial indexes.
arrow-wasm author Building block library for using Apache Arrow in Rust WebAssembly modules
geopolars author Geospatial extensions for the Polars DataFrame library.

Specifications:

Project Role Description
GeoArrow core contributor Specification for storing geospatial data in Apache Arrow.
GeoParquet core contributor Specification for storing geospatial vector data (point, line, polygon) in Parquet.

Other:

Project Role Description
National Scenic Trails Guide author A website and data tools for exploring and navigating the Pacific Crest Trail. After hiking the PCT, this project was the core of my effort to transition to a career in geospatial software engineering.
all-transit author Visualization of all transit routes in continental U.S.
vscode-jupyter-python author Run automatically-inferred Python code blocks in the VS Code Jupyter extension
