Conclusion & Recommendation• KIEIN Geoenvironmental DB and
related applications could be utilized as a baseline information dissemination tool for HIMA imitative and related issues in Kuwait.
• It is strongly recommended to establish a Geoenvironmental Portal (similar to KIEIN) on the regional and international levels to share the knowledge, experience and information regarding the HIMA issue.
