What I'm looking for

I'm looking to apply utility mapping, cadastral surveying, GIS, and remote sensing to deliver accurate geospatial insights that strengthen planning and decision-making for infrastructure and asset-management projects.

At the Electricity Company of Ghana, I support electrical distribution network assets through utility mapping, cadastral surveying, and geospatial analysis. I supervise spatial data gathering, coding, migration, map audits, and draughtsmen while helping shape spatial strategies.

I've also delivered GIS analysis, remote sensing, digital mapping, land-survey, and research consulting work for CTK GeoSys, Walulel, Geospatial Data Services, and the University of Mines and Technology. With over 10 years of combined experience, I turn spatial data into accurate insights for planning and decision-making.
