He has experience with extension services to ensure effective implementation of interventions such as in Hydrology, Agro-meteorology and Disaster Management. Dr Mushore is an active consultant in the fields of research and product development, applied GIS and remote sensing, climate change, agro-meteorology and hydrometeorology. Due to expertise in GIS which involves learning and use of a variety of software for collecting, analysing, storing and presenting data, Dr Mushore is also very quick at learning and using other data handling software which come with developments in technology; thus highly computer literate.
