Limpopo

We provide an integrated mapping system that gives peri-urban and rural areas digital presence - solving the problem of poor digital integration which hinders the mobility of essential services and economic activities. We use census numbers on each household as well as drones on those hard to reach places. Satellite imagery and data are crucial for us to scale, a useful resource needed to create one of the best digital maps even in remote places. We also offer livestock tracking and monitoring for rural and township households, giving them peace of mind over their assets.
