About Me

Kevin Kiprotich

Full Stack GIS Software Developer

I am a GIS Software Developer in Kenya driven by a simple idea: spatial data has the power to transform how we understand and solve real-world problems. I specialize in building geospatial applications, geoportals, and GIS mobile solutions that turn complex data into clear, actionable insights across Africa.

My work sits at the intersection of geospatial engineering and software development, where I use modern technologies to design scalable, intelligent systems. From environmental monitoring to data collection platforms, I develop tools that support decision-making and create measurable impact.
