Zambia’s achievement with the CLICOM system has been the most outstanding
in the region. The Department has shown an ability to use the system most
efficiently and effectively. A complete data bank has been developed and
high quality publications and advisories are produced. The most frequent
users of meteorological data and advisories include those involved in agriculture,
soil research, forestry, seismology, energy research, construction, water
resource development and medical research.
Agriculture is at the top of the Government’s priorities in the economic recovery programme. The high quality of publications and products of the Department indicates that it is well prepared to meet the challenge presented by this decision. Because of its demonstrated capability with CLICOM, the Zambia Meteorological Department is the home of the SADC CLICOM focal point for the new “self help” mechanism. The project has made a very worthwhile contribution to the building of a solid foundation for the Zambian Meteorological Service to go on to develop its potential to better serve the national economy.
