  3. Project«Environmental Indicators to monitor the state of the environment in Uzbekistan» A joint project of the Government of the Republic of Uzbekistan and United Nations Development Program (UNDP) Implementing Agency – Goskomprirodi Project Duration: Phase 1: April 2004 – January 2006 Phase 2. January 2006 – May 2007

  4. PHASE 1

  5. SystemPurpose To improve the quality of unified national monitoring of the environmental state Improve Environmental Reporting For more effective decision-making in the field of nature protection as well as nature resources use, and performance of the nature-conservative measures

  6. Project Phase 1 “Environmental Indicators to monitor the state of the environment in Uzbekistan” Project results Guideline on application of environmental indicators Environmental Information System (EIS) Agreement with Goskomprirodi and data providers about data share for EIDB Suite of indicators (91 indicator) Environmental Indicators Database (EIDB) with website

  7. National Environmental Indicators (91 indicator) • Themes: Atmosphere, Water, Land , Biodiversity, Waste, Energy, Aral Sea, Climate Change, and Public Health Websitehttp://eis.uznature.uz Environmental Indicators database Environmental Information System Data storage Data analysis Users: Decision-makers, Designers, Researchers, Public, NGOs and others Search and query by: Keyword, Environmental theme, Indicators, Time, Place Maps(in phase 2 of the Project) Tables Graphs Policy/ Decision making

  8. Properties of EIDB

  9. Website to manage Environmental Indicators Database (EIDB)

  10. PHASE 2

  11. Project Phase 2 «Enhancement of the Environmental Indicators Database (EIDB) with GIS application to monitor the State of the Environment in Uzbekistan» Expected Project Results GIS system integrated with EIDB Internet based Cartographic System, integrated with EIS and available through website. Environmental Information Metadatabase EIMDB Capacity building of local specialists for GIS and EIS. Uzbekistan Environmental Situation and International and National Assistance Map Bulletin of the environmental state in Uzbekistan Uzbekistan Environmental Situation Atlas

  12. GIS Integrated with EIDB Vector/Raster Maps Satellite images Digital Elevation Models Other…. Users Search system National GIS EIS Project Web Portal http://eis.uznature.uz Environmental Indicators database (EIDB) Metadatabase 91 monitoring indicators Themes: air, water, land energy, climate change, waste, health Environmental Information Contents: Thematic maps, Tables, Graphs, etc. International standards: ISO19115 ISO19235 Data providers

  13. 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.

  14. 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.

  15. 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.

  16. Obtained outcomes • New set of environmental indicators for Uzbekistan, consisting of 52 indicators (23 international and 29 national): А. Air pollution and ozone layer depletion -3 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

  17. 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.

  18. 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.

  19. 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 regionwere prepared.
