Elijah Kiarie
@elijahkiarie
I’m a GIS technician specializing in cartography and spatial analysis with ArcGIS, QGIS, and Google Earth Engine.
What I'm looking for
I’m a GIS & Remote Sensing professional trained in Cartography and GIS through a Diploma in Cartography and GIS and a Certificate in GIS & Remote Sensing from RCMRD. I focus on turning spatial data into clear, decision-ready maps and analyses.
I bring hands-on experience in spatial data processing, digitizing, and managing geospatial datasets. Through ArcGIS, QGIS, and Google Earth Engine, I’ve supported environmental analysis and produced thematic maps designed for reporting and decision-making.
In my GIS attachments, I supported infrastructure planning at Eldoret Water & Sanitation Company (ELDOWAS) and collaborated at RCMRD on geospatial workflows. I digitized and maintained datasets, conducted spatial analysis, and worked with multidisciplinary teams to keep GIS outputs accurate and usable.
I’m actively seeking entry-level GIS, mapping, or spatial data roles where I can grow professionally and contribute meaningfully to impactful projects—especially in environmental monitoring, land use and land cover mapping, and infrastructure planning.
