Development | Feb 2024 - Apr 2024

Geographic Information System Intern

During my productive 3-month internship at the DLPH&UD, I gained valuable experience applying my GIS skills (BSc in Geospatial Information Systems) to various aspects of land management and development. This internship helped me bridge the gap between theoretical knowledge and practical application of GIS software like ArcGIS and QGIS. Here's a breakdown of my key contributions: Fieldwork & Data Collection: Assisted with land surveys and cadastral surveys, employing established data collection methods relevant to land management. Data Management & Analysis: Utilized GIS software (ArcGIS/QGIS) alongside Microsoft Excel to organize and analyze spatial data related to land use, infrastructure, and other key features. Spatial Analysis & Visualization: Leveraged my GIS software skills to conduct spatial analysis to support land- use planning initiatives, resource allocation, and infrastructure development projects. Office Administration: Provided administrative support to ensure smooth departmental operations and efficient workflow. This dynamic internship provided a comprehensive understanding of the multifaceted role of GIS in land management. I honed my skills in data collection, analysis, and visualization using industry-standard software, while gaining valuable insights into the Department's critical work in shaping Kenya's land use and development landscape.

About Me

Mourine Lagat

A few years back, if you told me I'd be here today, it'd be funny! Data Science was only for the elites! Advantageously, I studied GIS, here, we call it Spatial Data Science. I believe data science contributes a lot into strengthening my GIS skills.
