Intel / Context Summary

AIIB approved a USD 2.0 million PPSF grant to WASAC Development Limited for wastewater project preparation in Kigali, creating a 12-24 month window where WASAC must procure external technical expertise through competitive bidding to access the restricted capital.

Catalyst: Why Now

WASAC's feasibility study cannot meet AIIB's Paris Alignment climate standards without detailed topographic data, flood zone mapping, and informal settlement sanitation access points - all of which are missing from public records and require ground-truthing.

Friction: The Bottleneck

  • Vulnerability: WASAC's feasibility study cannot meet AIIB's Paris Alignment climate standards without detailed topographic data, flood zone mapping, and informal settlement sanitation access points - all of which are missing from public records and require ground-truthing.
  • Capital yield: $300k exclusive license fee (15% of $2M grant)
  • Resource capture: Proprietary 'Kigali Sanitation Vulnerability Atlas' geodatabase
  • Sovereignty yield: Copyright-registered dataset becomes mandatory input for all AIIB-compliant wastewater projects in Kigali
  • Required vectors: Vector: Geospatial Analysis & Satellite Imagery, Vector: Field Data Collection & Local Operations, Vector: Data Licensing & Intellectual Property

Wedge: Execution Protocol

Phase 1: Satellite Data Acquisition & Ground-Truth Planning: Purchase 30cm resolution satellite imagery of Kigali from Planet Labs (historical + current). Use OpenStreetMap and Rwanda Natural Resources Authority shapefiles to identify all known wastewater infrastructure. Hire 2 local GIS students from University of Rwanda to plan ground-truthing routes for 50 highest-priority verification points. → Phase 2: Field Data Collection & Database Construction: Deploy student team with smartphones running ODK Collect to photograph and GPS-tag: 1) existing wastewater outflow points, 2) informal settlement sanitation access, 3) historical flooding evidence, 4) slope instability indicators. Merge field data with satellite analysis in PostgreSQL/PostGIS database with climate risk scoring layer. → Phase 3: Exclusive Licensing Strategy & WASAC Engagement: File copyright registration for the Atlas dataset with Rwanda Development Board. Schedule meeting with WASAC technical director 90 days before September 2025 EOI deadline, presenting dataset as 'mandatory for credible climate resilience assessment'. Offer exclusive 12-month license at $300k (15% of grant) with clause prohibiting competitors from using the data.
