Abstract
This paper is to address the problem of environmental health monitoring system facing Nigeria as a whole. Environment and the factors that are associated with it are the root causes of many epidemic diseases both in the developed and developing nations. In Nigeria, environmental health problems arise from population pressure on housing, poor environmental sanitation, coupled with lack of safe drink water and basic housing facilities. Despite the deplorable state of environmental health (lack of clean and safe drinking water, bad housing condition, and so on), there is no reliable and timely means of surveillance or any monitoring system. The result of this research makes it possible for environmental health workers to capture environmental health situation of any house in Nigeria real time while on the field. In conclusion, this paper presents result of a research which developed a web based environmental health tracking system for Nigeria.
