Domina Manishimwe

@dominamanishimwe

I map land, resources, and environments using GIS, remote sensing, surveying, and geospatial analysis.

I've delivered GIS, Remote Sensing, and Engineering Surveying instruction at the University of Rwanda, combining lectures with field and laboratory practicals in data acquisition, mapping, and spatial analysis.

Previously, I provided land surveying and GIS solutions at Alitos Engineering Company, preparing cadastral plans, conducting land-project mapping, and operating surveying instruments to support land management. I also supported road construction surveying, topographic mapping, progress monitoring, and quality control with China Road and Bridge Corporation.

My geoscience work includes an exploration geology internship with the Rwanda Mines, Petroleum and Gas Board, where I supported geological surveys, mapping, sampling, geochemical analysis, and reporting.

I'm experienced with ArcGIS, QGIS, satellite imagery, LiDAR, GNSS/GPS, AutoCAD Map 3D, Python, C++, geostatistics, and geological data integration. My research on the Cyasenge Iron Ore Deposit used geological mapping, geochemical analysis, digitization, and ArcGIS-based analysis to characterize iron-deposit distribution.
