Turning geospatial capability into trusted, enterprise decision-making
How to win executive trust and scale geospatial into everyday decision-making
Hello, I'm Lorin Liliko'i Lima, Geospatial Manager at Kaingaroa Tipu in Aotearoa New Zealand. At the GIS Leadership Summit 2026, I'll share how I have socialised strategy, championed prioritisation, and secured geospatial investment through modernisation and capability uplift.
About the speaker
I learned GIS in Redlands, at the heart of the geospatial industry, and later deepened that foundation through Johns Hopkins University’s Advanced Academic Programs. I bring more than two decades of experience building enterprise geospatial capability across government and industry. My work spans crisis response, transport, research, and forestry, focused on bridging technical capability and business strategy to enable confident, data-driven decision-making.
