The development of environment information system·(EIS) in Zambia has been rather slow in the recent past due to financial constraint. Creation of the National Remote Sensing Committee in 1980 was hailed as a first step towards establishing an environment databank in Zambia. A further step forward was taken with the development of the National Conservation Strategy (NCS) in 1985. Such efforts culminated into the establishment of Natural Resources Data Bank at the University of Zambia in 1989. Specifically, the University of Zambia data bank had included aspects on inventory of environmental publications and a catalogue of expertise available having knowledge of environmental and natural resources management.
