Obtained outcomes
I. Integration of GIS with EIDB:
•
•
•
•
ArGIS software was acquired and installed ;
The necessary Uzbekistan base raster maps were
obtained, installed and set up in accordance to EIS
requirements;
The necessary scripting and routines for interfacing of the
EIDB with ArcGIS were developed;
The necessary georeferences for all mapping indicators
from EIDB were determined, created and inputted;
The module for creation of thematic maps according to
indicators were developed.
Obtained outcomes (interim)
II. Integration of the Internet Mapping System (IMS)
into Environmental Information System (EIS):
•
The Internet Mapping System was installed, set up and
configured; the IMS was integrated with the EIS and made it
accessible via the EIS web site to deliver maps and layered
environmental indicators information via the web and offline;
•
The interface for MySQL database to establish streamlined
data exchange was created.
Obtained outcomes (interim)
III. Creation of the Environmental Information
Metadatabase (EIMDB) for cataloguing, searching,
retrieving and sharing Environmental Indicators
Information and maps via the web and offline
•
The metadata schema was defined;
•
The metadatabase structure was defined;
•
Set up of metadatabase;
•
Set up of web user interface.
Obtained outcomes
IV. New set of environmental indicators for
Uzbekistan, consisting of 52 indicators (23
international and 29 national):

B. Water resources – 13
С. Land resources – 12
D. Biodiversity – 4
E. Wastes – 6
F. Energy – 4
G. Aral sea – 2
H. Climate change – 3
I. Public health - 5
Set of indicators are given in Annex 1
Obtained outcomes (interim)
V. Environmental map for Donors
•
•
The database of implemented/implementing projects on the
territory of Uzbekistan by international and national donors
for last 10 years was created;
The first version of the environmental map with regional
distribution of the most critical environmental problems and
dislocation of the national and international projects
implemented/ implementing on the territory of Uzbekistan
for last 10 years was created.
Obtained outcomes (interim)
VI. Environmental bulletin of Uzbekistan
•
•
•
The bulletin’s design and table of content were developed
according to main environmental problems and groups of
indicators;
The tables, graphs and diagrams on the basis of
environmental indicators from the EIDB were prepared;
Data analysis and bulletin text content is being developed.
Obtained outcomes (interim)
VII. Uzbekistan Environmental Atlas
•
Design was determined and the content of the Atlas was
created;
•
Descriptions of environmental condition of Uzbekistan in
general and Andijan region were prepared.
