Technical Advice & Consulting

• Develop baseline land cover maps for all projects that have geo-referenced spatial boundaries at 30m and at very high resolution, where data are available.
• Develop a regional-scale land cover map (30m).
• Perform modelling and classification analyses using time-series datasets (e.g., climate, satellite, and reanalysis data) for ecosystem modelling and climate variability research, including generating customized code, based on R and Python, for large volume data processing and analysis.
• Capacity building for expanding the use of the data, methods and tools to other countries and regions.
• Contribute written input and technical guidance to the IAP project.
• Manage the highly visible, complex technical IAP project including meeting donor deadlines.
• Manage external partner relationships including development of capacity and generation of outputs to guide partners in making decisions.
• Apply GIS & Remote Sensing in water resource 
• Contribute to reporting structures as laid out in the IAP documentation and the preparation of the Annual Work Plan and Budget.
