OFDS Kenya
KDEAP · Communications Authority · World Bank Kenya

A national standard for Kenya's fibre infrastructure data.

The OFDS Kenya Geoportal helps regulators, operators and infrastructure owners share fibre data at the right level of detail — for better planning, faster rollout, and informed digital policy. No precise coordinates exposed publicly.

What the geoportal does

One workflow from operator dataset to OFDS-compliant output.

Upload CSV, Excel, Shapefile, GeoJSON or KML. Map your fields to OFDS. Run validation. Export an OFDS JSON or a CSV bundle, with a full mapping crosswalk and a machine-readable report.

Convert to OFDS 0.4

Step-by-step wizard with auto-suggested field mappings and saved templates per operator.

Validate and report

Required-field checks, CRS detection, ID integrity, topology, and metadata completeness scoring.

Share by tier

L1 schema-only, L2 aggregated (no precise coords), or L3 controlled detailed with approval workflow.

Tiered sharing model

The right level of detail for the right audience.

Stakeholders contribute and consume data at one of three tiers. Public users never see precise node coordinates.

L1

Format alignment

Schemas, data dictionaries, crosswalks and sample non-spatial tables. No geometry required.

L2

Aggregated coverage

County, sub-county or grid summaries. Precise coordinates are stripped on output.

L3

Controlled detailed

Full detailed data, granted by Admin approval, with audit logs on every access and download.
