@nabiswamichael
I build decision-support maps and geospatial workflows for infrastructure, land, and environmental projects.
KenyaWhat I'm looking for
I've supported water, power, land, and environmental mapping projects across Kenya using GIS, remote sensing, surveying, and cartographic production.
At Geospatial Research International, I mapped approximately 189 km of proposed bulk water pipeline, created a grid-based map book, and segmented the route into 126 sections based on depth-to-bedrock conditions. I also developed Python and PyQGIS workflows for raster classification, spatial analysis, geometry validation, and geospatial data processing.
Through roles at Geometer Surveys and Kenya Power and Lighting Company, I've produced cadastral and survey maps, maintained spatial datasets, verified field assets, updated power distribution networks, and supported route surveys, line alignment, and substation mapping.
