EPTISA secures the approval of the Design of the Water Management Information Systems in Serbia

The design will improve the management of the water resources in Serbia and the access to environmental information by all the stakeholders and citizens

The consortium Eptisa-DHI-Jaroslav Cerni Institute have recently received the approval of the design of the Water Management Information Systems in Serbia. The design, that will improve the management of the water resources in Serbia and the access to environmental information by all the stakeholders and citizens, was prepared under a CARDS project financed by the European Union and managed by the European Agency for Reconstruction, and with a budget of 2 million Euros.

For the past 15 months a team of IT and Water Resources experts worked together in order to prepare a system architecture that would fulfil all the needs of the Directorate for Waters and the two public water management companies. Now the development of the system has started and it is expected that by mid January 2009 Serbia will have a fully operational and tailor made Water Information System based on state-of-the-art GIS technologies.
