KlappentextCurrently information is the base for every activity throughout the Universe. The information technology provides advantage of data storage and retrieval. Geoportal is one part of the information systems which can help in disseminating spatial and non-spatial information. Disasters risk monitoring, and specifically drought risk monitoring, is one of the area that is in need of information in order to reduce their potential negative effects. The drought-prone region of Ethiopia is currently using a manual system to collect, organize as well as disseminate drought risk information to various stakeholders, hence delaying the decision making processes. This study was done with the aim of developing a Geoportal for drought risk monitoring system in Tigray region. The system has a portal web interface that allows interaction between the user and the system. As a result the system can be used for distributing information online with the help of internet connection. In addition the system can produces maps by querying data from the database. The study concludes that with further modifications it can be fully implemented to the institutions involved on drought risk monitoring activities.
