ZimbabweWhat I'm looking for
I'm currently supporting Allied Timbers Zimbabwe with geospatial analysis, drone mapping, surveillance, and environmental monitoring across forestry estates.
I plan and execute drone missions, process high-resolution imagery in Pix4D and GIS software, and maintain reliable GIS databases that support timber resource planning and decision-making. I also coordinate data-collection projects from planning through delivery while maintaining quality standards.
Previously, I supported Bulawayo City Council with cadastral data capture, municipal GIS database maintenance, spatial analysis, and quality assurance for infrastructure planning and land-use mapping. My work includes mapping illegal settlers across 112,000 hectares, urban land-use analysis, school story maps, and drone surveillance operations.
