Hydro and Agro Informatics Institute

I am Dr. Royol Chitradon, Director of Hydro and Agro Informatics Institute (HAII).
Please allow me to give a brief description of HAII.

Hydro and Agro Informatics Institute was founded on 16th January 2004 under National Science and Technology Development Agency (NSTDA), the Ministry of Science and Technology, Thailand, as an informatics institute on water resources and agriculture.

With the information system, government agencies who deal with water resource and agricultural issues should have essential information before making any decisions on their plans and operations especially in crisis like drought and flood. The information system includes the important data to apply for the implementation of following up, planning, and managing water resources and agriculture in order to lessen the loss of economic and social growth caused by water issues.

To reach sustainable development, the collaboration of agencies, essential knowledge, and appropriate technology are required. Two main tasks for HAII are to create an essential information system on water resource and agricultural management and found cooperative networks among different organizations.
