Specific Business Areas¶
Water and Sewerage Services¶
GeoFront experts use open-source GIS for Water, aimed at helping water utilities in Eastern Africa through GIS. They are also long-term contributors to QField’s Japanese and Swahili translations. Our team has developed GIS for water and sewerage services companies in Kenya, Rwanda, and Tanzania. They have mapped some utilities’ entire water distribution network (approximately 300km of pipeline) using Trimble GPS, ArcPAD, and QGIS. We designed and developed GIS databases and WebGIS using PostGIS, Mapserver, and Leafletjs. The system links to billing systems, helping improve revenue collections. We created District Metered Areas (DMAs) for analyzing and improving Non-Revenue Water management. GeoFront experts conducted training to transfer technical knowledge to Kenyan colleagues, ensuring the GIS system is continuously used since its development. We have consulted on GIS work for various water and sanitation service companies.
