Since 1993, all Slovak environmental departments of district/regional authorities are collected waste management data annually. There was developed the Slovak Waste Information System (SWIS) supported data management (collection, validation, editing, archiving, visualisation and processing) and it has been implemented and operated at all state environmental authorities since 1995. The Centre of Waste and Environmental Management of the Slovak Environmental Agency has been processed these annual data using the SWIS. The SWIS is now a part of the Partial Monitoring Systems WASTE, which is focused on monitoring, forecasting and decision-support services of waste management authorities of the Slovak Ministry of Environment. It will be presented, how the SWIS and its waste management databases help both national and international waste management information systems (SR, EEA, UNEP, OECD) for informing citizens, public administration and business together with the monitoring services for the identification, assessment, monitoring, transport and prevention of hazardous waste risks. Ten years experiences of waste data and information management and sharing knowledge on Slovak waste management using the SWIS are presented, too.Text/Conference Paper
