NATIONAL MAPPING AND RESOURCE INFORMATION AUTHORITY

FY-2009 Annual Accomplishment Report

I. Executive Summary

In 2009, the NAMRIA was able to make significant contribution to the

overall thrusts and programs of the DENR and the national government through provision of geographic data and information as basic reference for planning and decision-making.

The agency gained major accomplishments on its 17 regular projects

under the following major functions: (a) Hydrographic Surveys and Nautical Charting; (b) Topographic Mapping; (c) National Geodetic Network Development; (d) Land Classification; and (e) Information Management. Salient undertakings were the PRS92 Project which aims to establish a homogenous geodetic reference system for the country, and the locally-funded Extended Continental Shelf (ECS) Project that would prove our entitlement for an ECS, to be

submitted to the United Nations (UN) in accordance with the United Nations Convention of the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS).

In hydrographic surveys and nautical charting, NAMRIA conducted survey of the country’s Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ) and archipelagic waters to ensure safety of navigation and delimit the country’s maritime boundaries in large-scale charts as required by UNCLOS. The technical information gathered shall be submitted to the UN as reference to resolve territorial boundary conflicts with our neighboring countries. Notices-to-Mariners were published to provide the maritime sector and other users with up-to-date navigational information and ocean data. Tide Stations and the National Oceanographic Data Center (NODC) were maintained and operated to provide year-long data on sea level, periodic means of tidal datum planes and other tidal conditions to be used by shipping, engineering and fisheries sectors as well as for scientific research.

NAMRIA provided full technical support to the Commission on Maritime

and Ocean Affairs (CMOA), the House of Representatives and the Senate for the successful passage of Republic Act No. 9522, known as the New Archipelagic Baselines Law of the Philippines. It is a landmark legislation and one of the key Philippine actions toward the implementation of the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS). The new baselines are compliant with UNCLOS and are the basis from where the different maritime zones are measured. The agency conducted series of meetings on the technical aspects of RA 9522 and provided various options for the Philippine baselines.

The NAMRIA prepared the technical data for the claim on ECS

entitlement at Benham Rise area which was submitted to the United Nations Commission for Extended Continental Shelf (UNCECS) on April 2009. It was presented to the Commission en banc, in August 2009 by the Philippine Country Team on the Philippine ECS Submission.

The agency continued the development of the country’s national geodetic

network through the Philippine Reference System of 1992 (PRS’92) Project which aimed to establish a homogenous and accurate geodetic network as reference for all surveying and mapping activities in the country.

Topographic base mapping at different scales were undertaken to provide

updated information on infrastructure and other land features that reflect the topography, drainage systems, vegetation, road networks and major landmarks. These base maps were provided to PHIVOLCS, PAGASA and MGB for use in geohazard mapping and other related disaster management activities. These

maps are also being widely used by LGUs, private sector and academe as reference for local development planning, business and research activities.

Another major activity undertaken was land classification survey to

delineate the boundaries between forestlands and alienable and disposable (A/D) lands. Evaluation and assessment surveys were conducted and LC maps were finalized as legal references for agro-industrial development, reforestation, policy formulation and fast-track the land distribution effort of the government in support of poverty alleviation.

Under information management, NAMRIA developed and maintained web-based systems and databases to support the initial establishment of the National Spatial Data Infrastructure (NSDI). Geographic information services were made available through the NAMRIA Geomatics Training Center and the NAMRIA One-Stop-Shop (OSS). The GTC conducted trainings for different government offices, local government units, academe and the private sector on GIS, GPS operations, map updating and database development. The OSS provided geographic and ENR information services to various clients.

Major NAMRIA projects were also supported by information management activities. These support components include map integration; information systems development; and information, education, and communication (IEC) campaigns. The 20 Map Sales Office in the different regions continued to enhance the accessibility of NAMRIA products to map users all over the country. Special projects with other government agencies and the private sector were also undertaken on base mapping, geodetic surveys, and systems development, namely: (a) UNDP READY (Geo-Hazard) Project; (b) Clark Development Corporation (CDC) Boundary Mapping; (c) GMA Network Digitization; (d) Technical Assistance on the Development of GIS-Based Real Property Tax Information System for the Provincial Government of Bataan; and (e) Forestry Information System (Phase 2).

Intervening activities include accommodating requests of various agencies in the government, the academe and from private institutions for digital base maps/satellite images, aerial photographs, certification on land classification status, and provision of related geographic and natural resource data.

2. TOPOGRAPHIC BASE MAPPING

NAMRIA produced topographic base maps at various scales, as well as thematic maps which served as primary inputs for national and local development planning activities. These also serve as base data used by other

agencies such as MGB, PAGASA and PHIVOLCS in the production of geohazard maps. These topo maps were produced using photogrammetry, satellite remote sensing, digital cartography and Geographic Information System (GIS) technology.

Large-scale Base Mapping (1:10,000): This project is

part of the continuous large scale mapping of urban and high-growth areas of the country to detect rapid changes in land features. Data gathered through aerial photography undergo photogrammetric and digital cartographic enhancement processes prior to mass production. Six (6) sheets for Metro Manila at scale 1:10,000 were enhanced; twenty one (21) sheets for Bulacan were compiled and orthophoto mapping for the same area extending to an

additional of twenty two (22) sheets and nine (9) sheets for Boracay were likewise completed. Aerial photography covering Kalibo area was successfully conducted and evaluated.

Medium Scale Mapping (1:50,000): The production and updating of topographic base maps at this scale are indispensable in the determination of areas at the municipal and provincial levels that are susceptible to

geologic hazards such as soil erosion from rainfall, flooding, storm surge, earthquake-induced landslides, soil liquefaction, subsidence, volcanic upheavals and lahar flow. A total of seventy two (72) out of 162 map sheets were converted into digital format including elevations of contour intervals, edge-matching, corrective editing and map layout; forty (40) SPOT 5 satellite imageries were acquired and nineteen (19) were processed.

Administrative/Special Mapping: This activity involved

the production of updated regional and provincial maps based from topographic map at scale 1:50,000 and other references as tools for development planning. Activities completed were: data gathering, mosaicking, conversion and cartographic enhancement for provincial maps; and

data gathering, mosaicking and geographic names indexing for Philippine Road Atlas.

Printing of Topographic/Administrative Maps: Reproduced/printed the targeted 30 quadrangles.

3. NATIONAL GEODETIC NETWORK DEVELOPMENT

The development of the national geodetic network through the Philippine Reference System of 1992 (PRS92) Project continuously provided a homogeneous geodetic reference for accurate survey and mapping of natural resources, as well as administrative and cadastral boundaries. The project was undertaken through the collaboration of the Regional Offices of the DENR.

The following were the accomplishments of PRS92 Project: Geodetic Network Development: This component

established new and maintained existing geodetic control points (GCPs) and updated the geodetic database to expedite the referencing of surveys and maps to PRS92. Established/observed fifty nine (59) out of the total target of sixty five (65) Zero Order points; re-observed eleven (11) 1st Order points; releveled 145.6 km. in Mega Manila; four (4) clusters of inter-island benchmark connection; and surveyed/established 37 gravity stations.

PRS92 Data Integration: This activity produced a set of

spatially consistent and precise datasets and developed procedures, through research, on fundamental data build-up by integrating all ENR maps in the DENR regional offices into PRS92. Ninety seven (97) image control points (ICPs) were established in Pangasinan, Antique and Marinduque covering a total of 15 map sheets, four (4) scenes of SPOT 5

satellite imageries, GPS network design of ICPs and PCPs for the remaining target mapsheets and satellite imageries for Pampanga, Tarlac and Zambales were completed. Installation, training and data input for the Land Survey

Project Information System (LSPIS) was completed. Regional monitoring and evaluation of the 16 DENR-Land Management Services (LMS) accomplishments for FY 2008 and assessment of targets for FY 2009 were also completed. A total of 418 LC maps were processed; replotted 600 and converted 418 LC lines and corners; evaluated 6 LC and 12 forest boundary lines and corners; transformed into PRS92 LC maps of the provinces of Biliran and Benguet; conducted three (3) regional trainings on replotting of LC maps for Regions 3, 9 & NCR; continued encoding PRS92 and other ENR Datasets for the province of Aurora, Camarines Sur and Bataan; and continued downloading of ALOS data (62 scenes of AVNIR-2 and 248 scenes of PALSAR).

PRS92 Active Geodetic Network: The project installed Active Geodetic Stations (AGS) all over the country in support to the modernization of surveying and mapping in the Philippines by establishing permanent Global Positioning System (GPS) base stations. This is by continuously maintaining and monitoring the six (6) existing active geodetic stations (AGS); signed Memorandum of Agreement (MOA) for hosting the AGS with Philippine Navy, Nueva Vizcaya State University (NVSU), Mindanao State University (MSU), PMMA, Dept. of Agriculture (Region II), LGUs of Legazpi, Iloilo, Tacloban, Surigao and Cebu. Continuous follow-up is being conducted by the PageNET Group on the approval of the MOA for the remaining six (6) sites; completed construction for the six (6) AGS in NVSU, Legazpi, Iloilo, Tacloban, Surigao and General Santos City; and installed GNSS antenna and receiver and tilt sensor at NVSU, Legazpi, Tacloban, Surigao and Iloilo stations.

Establishment and Upgrading of Tide Stations: The

operation of tide stations in relation to PRS92 is vital in the collection of tidal data for use in the processing of tidal datum. This is needed to obtain continuous sea level records in the coastal areas in the Philippines. The project conducted nine (9) reconnaissance survey on the proposed 12 new tide stations; completed construction and installation of equipment for Catbalogan and El Nido tide houses; and continuously undertook releveling, retrieval and processing of datas on PRS92 Tide Stations.

4. LAND CLASSIFICATION

Classification/assessment surveys of the remaining unclassified lands of the public domain were conducted, as well as determination of land use/suitability of the country’s forestlands. Provision of services for transfer,

sharing, exchange, packaging and dissemination of natural resource and environmental information in all regions and provinces of the country were likewise undertaken by the agency.
