The objective of the Central Asia Hydrometeorology Modernization Project (CAHMP) is to improve the accuracy and timeliness of hydromet services in Central Asia, with particular focus on Kyrgyz Republic and Republic of Tajikistan. There are three components to the project. The first component of the project is strengthening regional coordination and information sharing: This component will ensure that each of the National Hydrometeorological Services (NHMSs) in the region can share, use, exchange and archive common hydromet data and information, and that each agency has a comparable level of expertise in the production of information and delivery of hydromet services. The second component of the project is strengthening of hydromet services in Kyrgyz Republic. The component will help strengthen Kyrgyzhydromet to ensure that it has the infrastructure and capability to sustainably observe, forecast and deliver weather, water and climate services that meet the country's identified economic and societal needs. The third component of the project is strengthening of hydromet services in Republic of Tajikistan. The component will help strengthen Tajikhydromet to ensure that it has the infrastructure and capability to sustainably observe, forecast and deliver weather, water and climate services that meet the country's identified economic and societal needs.
