Under the equipment component of the project, the Directorate of Meteorology
received various types of conventional and non-conventional meteorological
equipment to rehabilitate well over twenty stations. Two upper-air stations
were also established at Kigoma and Mtwara. In order to enhance the collection
of meteorological data, communications facilities were strengthened through
the installation of ten HF transceivers. Four facsimile receivers were
provided and installed in Zanzibar and at Kigoma, Mtwara and Tabora. Furthermore,
a CLICOM system was installed at the Dar es Salaam Headquarters to facilitate
the processing of meteorological data. The Directorate also benefited from
the services of the regional data processing expert who was stationed at
the Directorate’s premises in Dar es Salaam. With regard to the maintenance
of meteorological equipment and instruments, the project provided workshop
tools and other types of maintenance equipment; field inspection was also
strengthened through the provision of five vehicles.
