Following the award to Kenyatta University of ARCGIS ESRI ENTERPRISE LICENSE that is accessible to all students and staff through the Esri’s 100 African University’s programme, the university has embarked on a training programme to enable staff and students benefit from the geospatial tools now at their disposal.![]() ICT Director explaining to ESRI International Cooperate Director and ESRI EA Manager the network connectivity. Looking on is the Dean SES |
The Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) that made this possible was signed between the Vice Chancellor Kenyatta University and the Managing Director, ESRI Eastern Africa Kenyatta and witnessed by various stakeholders. The MoU was signed in June 2012, and the ArcGIS campus wide Server License was received in May 2013. Kenyatta University ICT Directorate has made the necessary connectivity to enable the students and staff access the license for geospatial related research and teaching. |
The Esri 100 African University’s programme is a 10- million dollars initiative launched by Esri to support and enhance the study of Geographic Information System (GIS) among students in 100 African Universities. Kenyatta University is the first Kenyan University and indeed the first African University to receive and start implementing the use of the license under the programme. Among many other benefits, knowledge in GIS and Remote Sensing will allow students and staff learn its application and to have a better |
appreciation and understanding of the world and the development processes therein through visualizing data in many ways that reveal relationships, patterns, and trends in the form of maps, statistics, reports, and charts. A Number of computer labs at Kenyatta University have been identified and equipped with ArcGIS to give a wider access and training opportunity to those who may not have their own computers and also to have a class room environment for teaching and research. Among the labs are: |

The other access points will be established as demanded by the individual Schools especially for postgraduate use. Esri has also given access to Kenyatta University’s Post Modern library a link to General Esri E Books., Technology E- Books and Industries E-books Free ESRI virtual campus online training courses can be found at this link One great Esri application the GIS Team in KU has identified for everyone is the Esri Story Maps. A story map is a web map that has been thoughtfully created and integrates maps, legends, text, photos and video. It can be used to communicate policy, involve the community, promote a cause, demonstrate benefits, provide public information about an event, educate or simply inspire. |
Hundreds of thousands of story maps have been created and you can view some of them by visiting this link . Building a story map is very easy and the Six-Step process of doing so can be found at this link The first of the major activity to be implemented by Kenyatta University was the hosting of the ESRI Eastern Africa education Users Conference on the theme learning more and more about Geospatial Technologies. The conference proceedings are found at this link and provides interesting reading. The conference was graced by among others the Vice Chancellor, Kenyatta University, Two ESRI Education Managers; Dr. Michael Gould and Dr Joseph Kerski, and ESRI Eastern Africa Managing Director, Mr. Willy Simons. |
Another major spin-off of the collaboration with Esri was the development of the University Geographical Data Portal which is currently posted on the university website home page www.ku.ac.ke . This data is undergoing review to reflect the current geospatial changes in the university. This will be the platform for My Story Maps and Campus GIS. CERNVec: Community of Excellence for Research in Neglected tropical Diseases ,click this link has used the platform before for a training workshop on Mapping Diseases.

Kenyatta University: A Lighthouse of Geospatial knowledge in Sub-Saharan Africa. Prof Simon Onywere shines the Torch of GIS from KU
Kenyatta University is now a regional and sub-Saharan Africa education site license ESRI reference account providing a real case study on how to successfully implement a site license. The university is now a continental lighthouse who’s GIS light is beaming far and wide. Now more and more universities are contacting Esri Eastern Africa wanting them to do to them what they have done to KU.
Prof. Simon Onywere of the Department of Environmental Planning and Management is the ESRI site license administrator at KU. For his role in sensitising the university community on the site licence and the visibility this has created for Kenyatta University he was crowned the 2014 ESRI GIS Champion in Eastern Africa Region and indeed in the sub-Saharan Africa. He and his small team of GIS technical support and training team now receives invitations from other universities to provide thought leadership on GIS, Esri’s 100 Africa Universities Program and ArcGIS education site license implementation. The African universities now seeking the support of ESRI 100 African Universities programme are borrowing from the experience of Kenyatta University in the implementation process.

In November 2014 Prof Onywere lead a delegation of 8 Kenyatta University Participants to the 2nd Esri Eastern Africa GIS Education User Conference, held at the University of Dar Es Salaam where the team demonstrated how as an Esri ArcGIS licensed education user Kenyatta University has managed to impart spatial knowledge in teaching and Research. The conference brought together 21 Universities and geospatial users from the East African Region. The KU GIS Team also mounted a very successful GIS Day celebrated every Wednesday of the 3rd week of November each year. 2014 GIS Day theme was on “Discovering the World through GIS”. The KU GIS team has also conducted a number of training workshops in KU. The 1st Esri Eastern Africa GIS Education User Conference had been hosted by KU in 2013.
Valuable insights that the university has provided on an education site license implementation are:
- The critical role of an enlightened internal GIS champion who offers his/her time, dedication and commitment helping others in the university to envision the benefits and possibilities with GIS and start moving forward.
- The need for university-wide capacity building support to drive quicker adoption of GIS and use of the availed licenses across all Schools.
- Executive support from Top University Management and Especially the Vice Chancellor should exist. Otherwise adopting GIS at the enterprise level within the university will not be possible.
- The ICT Directorate is an invaluable cog as the directorate provides all the ICT infrastructure and technical support to successfully implement a site license.
