The only usage seems to be in one place:
/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/binoculars/space.py:from vtk import 
vtkImageData, vtkXMLImageDataWriter
/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/binoculars/space.py:from vtk.util import 
numpy_support
/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/binoculars/space.py:        image_data = 
vtkImageData()
/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/binoculars/space.py:        temp_array = 
numpy_support.numpy_to_vtk(temp_array, deep=1)
/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/binoculars/space.py:        writer = 
vtkXMLImageDataWriter()

And this does not even seem to be used right now:
