Canonical: https://gisforweb.com/tools/rio-tiler/

Python library for generating map tiles and reading raster data from GDAL-supported sources.

rio-tiler is a Rasterio-based Python library for reading raster datasets and generating web map tiles on demand. It supports local, HTTP, S3, and GCS sources, with helpers for tiles, bounding boxes, features, points, STAC items, Xarray data, and mosaics. It underlies services such as TiTiler and supports custom TileMatrixSets through morecantile.
