Earlier, the Government of Uzbekistan and Export-Import Bank of Korea signed an agreement on provision of a soft loan of $15 million for 40 years for implementation of this project. Last week, President Islam Karimov signed a resolution for implementation of the project titled “Establishment of the National Geographic Information System”. The period of implementation of the project will last for four years (2013-2017). The project will create a multi-purpose information system to provide national integrated accounting and assessment of natural and economic potential of the country. It will also ensure operational provision of cadastral information for public authorities, businesses and individuals.
