Profile

I am Iahaia A. M. Amisse, Architect and Physical Planner with experience in collaborative mapping and urban regeneration. I work with GIS tools such as QGIS, ArcGIS, Google Earth, and OpenStreetMap, focusing on sustainable and participatory solutions for growing cities. I am interested in urban innovation, digital inclusion, and community development in vulnerable contexts.

My mission as a mapper is to help ensure that every street, every school, every hospital, and every community, no matter how remote, is represented on the map. I want to help create a world where public decisions and emergency responses are based on accurate, accessible, and collaborative information.
