GIS MAPPING & SPATIAL DATA INTELLIGENCE IN KENYA

Turn Location Data into Actionable Engineering, Planning & Infrastructure Intelligence.We provide advanced GIS mapping services in Kenya, Uganda, Ethiopia, Tanzania and East Africa, integrating drone data, satellite imagery, and field survey datasets to deliver accurate, decision-ready spatial intelligence for governments, engineers, utilities, and developers.

From raw coordinatesTo intelligent mapsTo real-world decisions
Spatial Intelligence

What is GIS Mapping?

Geographic Information Systems (GIS) is a technology that:

Captures spatial data

Analyzes geographic relationships

Visualizes data as interactive maps

Supports engineering and planning decisions

In simple terms:

GIS turns survey data into intelligent decision systems

GNSS control

Sub-decimetre to cm level

Satellite data

0.3 m – 10 m depending on source

Before vs After

Before vs After GIS Implementation

BEFORE SMARTGRID

Managing projects without a centralized GIS

  • Scattered spatial data
  • No centralized mapping system
  • Planning based on assumptions
  • High project uncertainty
