Seabilwe Pontso Leah Tilodi
I am a GIS and Earth Observation professional, data analyst, and Head of Training at Kartoza (Pty) Ltd. I help teams turn spatial data into actionable insight through open-source geospatial workflows, training, and capacity building. My work spans GIS, remote sensing, and Earth observation analytics, using tools such as QGIS, PostGIS and Python, with a focus on practical, real-world case studies. I design learner-centred training programmes, supports organisations to build internal geospatial skills, and contributes to the open-source geospatial community through knowledge sharing and workshops.
