An astronomy and astrophysics graduate from the University of Nairobi, he bridges his background in space science with practical EO applications through Digital Earth Africa\u2019s tools. Using datasets such as Water Extent and Burnt Area Mapping, Julius has tracked the steady rise of Lake Nakuru over three decades and mapped the devastating Isiolo wildfires of early 2025, which burned over 200,000 acres of pastureland. His research highlights how accessible satellite data can inform environmental management, resource planning, and climate resilience across Africa.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>\u0648\u0635\u0641\u064a \u0644\u062e\u0644\u0641\u064a\u062a\u064a \u0627\u0644\u0623\u0643\u0627\u062f\u064a\u0645\u064a\u0629 \u0648\u062a\u0631\u0643\u064a\u0632\u064a \u0627\u0644\u0628\u062d\u062b\u064a \u0628\u0627\u062e\u062a\u0635\u0627\u0631.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I\u2019m an astronomy and astrophysics graduate from the University of Nairobi.
