Hanoi (VNA)
- Prime Minister Nguyen Xuan Phuc has approved a plan on the establishment of a national natural resources and environmental monitoring database for 2017-2022.

The plan will collect data on natural resources and environment monitoring provided by units under the Ministry of Natural Resources and Environment, other ministries, agencies, organisations and enterprises.

Data will be collected from observation stations, periodically monitoring activities and monitoring data outside Vietnam’s territory in line with international agreements and conventions.

The plan aims to establish a national natural resources and environment monitoring database, on the basis of the planning for the national natural resources and environment monitoring network from 2016-2025, with a vision through 2030.

Advanced technology will be used in data collection and management, facilitating information announcement and sharing, in order to serve policy making, socio economic development, control and preventing natural disaster, ensuring national defence and security, and responding to climate change.-VNA
