| Step 1: Provide a Background and Identify the Objectives of the GIS Analysis | ||
| In most cities and more urbanizing municipalities/cities, the presence of informal settlers is ever increasing due to migration factors triggered by unemployment or the absence of livelihood opportunities in their places of origin and the need to find better sources of income to support their families. The presence of hazards in their areas of origin has also contributed to the increasing migration to urban areas.
As shown in the examples below, different types of information can be produced using the datasets specified in the CLUP attribute database collection. Recognizing the presence of informal settlers in the municipality/city is an important first step to enable planners to plan for their relocation or needs in terms of housing, utilities and services. A map showing the location of informal settlers needs to be produced. For those situated in danger zones, it may be necessary to find a relocation site. Therefore potential land for housing should be studied as well. Further studies may be carried out by the LGU in coordination with other agencies or real estate developers in determining potential land for housing. In the following examples, the output product will show the map of informal settlers and approved housing projects. A map for potential lands for housing may be generated but will require further studies by the LGU, developers etc. |
||
| Step 2: Identify the Indicators to Evaluate Objective Fulfillment | ||
| Define Planning Standards for accessibility, service provision/consumer ratio, consumer/housed service, physical condition of features, etc. | ||
| The presence of Informal Settlers, Housing Backlog, Doubled up household population projection. | ||
| Step 3: Create the Database | ||
| Attribute | ||
| The following attribute tables may be used for this sector. Those in bold are used for the examples here.
SE01 Housing: Occupied Housing Units by Tenure and Type, Year YYYY
SE02 Housing: Occupied Housing by Household and Population Density, Year YYYY |
||
| The Custodians of sector data are the NSO, HLURB, HUDCC and the LGU. | ||
| Spatial | ||
| The spatial feature will be a polygon. If available, it is recommended that the aerial photo will be used as backdrop to facilitate the digitizing of the polygons. Three layers are prepared: | ||
| 1. Informal settlement areas. | ||
| 2. Housing projects | ||
| 3. Potential Lands for Housing by Classification, Actual Land-use and Zoning | |
|
| Step 4: Analyze the Data | ||
| Refer to Housing Sector of Volume II – Social Sector of the HLURB Guidelines
Analysis can be prepared based on the tables mentioned above to determine the adequacy services/utilities provided to the areas, housing needs/requirements etc. |
||
| Cross sector analysis can also be done to assess and determine needs and requirements. | ||
| Step 5: Present the Data | ||

| Step 1: Provide a Background and Identify the Objectives of the GIS Analysis | ||
| Health is a major concern for many communities today, particularly the delivery of health services to areas which are not only inaccessible, but are as well the locations of the more needy constituents of the community, who cannot afford to pay for health services on their own. It is the primary concern of the LGU that these health services should reach these areas and establish facilities like barangay health centers to cater to a fundamental need of the people.
The objective is to show the adequacy of the provision of Health Services accessible to the whole municipality/city. |
||
| Step 2: Identify the Indicators to Evaluate Objective Fulfillment | ||
| Define Planning Standards for accessibility, service provision/consumer ratio, consumer/housed service, physical condition of buildings and plot, etc.
Standard Rural Health Units (RHU) Personnel Population 1 Municipal Health Officer (MHO) per 20,000 Source : RA 7305 (Magna Carta for Health Workers) |
||
| Step 3: Create the Database | ||
| Attributes | ||
| The following attribute tables may be used for this sector. Those in bold are used for the examples here.
SE13 Facility by Type and Ownership, Year YYYY |
||
| Spatial | ||
| Data can be obtained during the GPS survey. A print out of SE 14 can be filled-up by the hospital administrator during the conduct of GPS readings. | ||
| Hospitals | ||
| City/Municipal Health Office | ||
| Barangay Health Center | ||
| The locations of these facilities are overlaid with the base map | ||
![]() |
||
| Step 4: Analyze the Data | ||
| The following Analyses layers can be prepared based on the Baseline Information: | ||
| Barangays without any health facilities | ||
![]() |
||
| The data can also be overlaid with the population density map to see how much of the population is being served by the health center and also how much is not served (those without health facility). | ||
![]() |
||
| In order to reach more people, some LGUs assign Medical Health Officers to the barangays to serve and hold clinics. Getting the total population from all the barangays being served by a Medical Health Officer will show whether it is within the standard. | ||
| Barangays served way below the “ Medical Health Officer to Population Standard” | ||
| Barangays served 50% below “Medical Health Officer to Population Standard” | ||
| Barangays served slightly below “Medical Health Officer to Population Standard” | ||
| Barangays served within or above “Medical Health Officer to Population Standard” | ||
![]() |
||
| If there is only one Medical Health Officer or there are more than one but are not holding clinics in barangays outside the Municipal/City Health Office, their catchment area should be the actual barangays they serve in the Municipal/City Health Office. Those Barangays which are too far away from and inaccessible to the Municipal/City Health Office and are not regularly visited by the Municipal Health Officers should be considered not served. | ||
| Step 5: Present the Data | ||
| Show the areas of those barangays that require a health service facility (diagonal line fill). Show also those barangays with 50% below the Municipal Health Officer to Population Standard (shaded orange) with those Way Below the Municipal Health Officer to Population Standards (shaded orange), to show more options for solutions. The solution to this problem will not only involve hiring additional MHOs but giving them additional service areas. | ||

||
| Step 1: Provide a Background and Identify the Objectives of the GIS Analysis | ||
| Education improves the quality of life and promotes citizen empowerment; hence, it is a basic need of every citizen. The objective is to use GIS to display the pertinent data of educational facilities and the constraints that exist today. This information will be used in Step 4 (see Volume 1). The users of this data are: LGU staff, officials and the general public. The education information products can be used by the District Office of the Department of Education. The final products of this activity will be digital maps for analysis as well as for display. In this example, the output will be a map showing the status of school conditions and the areas served. The inadequacy of classroom-teacher needs will also be analyzed. |
||
| Step 2: Identify the Indicators to Evaluate Objective Fulfillment | ||
| Regarding information about the planning methods that can be used, please refer to Volume 2. Indicators will be needed to measure fulfillment of planning standards for accessibility, student/teacher ratio, student/classroom ratio, student/school area/site ratio, student/schoolbook ratio; physical condition of building and plot. Examples on current standards for Primary and Secondary Schools are as follows:
|
||
| Step 3: Create the Database | ||
| Creating the database is a three-step process. The steps are designing the database, gathering data for the database, and managing the database. | ||
| Attributes | ||
| The following attribute tables may be used for this sector. Those in bold are used for the examples. SE19 School by Level, Type and Ownership, Year YYYY SE20 Capacity and Condition of School, Year YYYY SE21 Literacy Rate of Population 5 Years and Over by Gender SE22 Historical Enrollment for the Last Three School Years by Level SE23 Classroom and Teacher Needs per Barangay SE24 Tertiary and Vocational/Technical Schools by Enrollees and Courses Offered, Year YYYY SE25 Highest Educational Attainment of Population 5 Years and Over, Year YYYY |
||
| The Custodian of sector data are the District/Division offices of the Department of Education (DepEd) | ||
| This is an example which describes how to get the attribute data for the Education CLUP Attribute Tables: | ||
| 1 | The DepEd District Supervisor is invited to the Briefing in CLUP Step 2. | |
| 2 | The Local Chief Executive or the Municipal Mayor issues a letter to the DepEd District Supervisor, encloses the forms of tables (in hard or soft copies depending on the computer proficiency level at the Education District Office) with a request to fill the forms accordingly. | |
| 3 | The District Supervisor invites the Principals/Head Teachers/ Teachers in Charge (School Heads) to a meeting to inform them about the request and ask them to submit the data. | |
| 4 | The Principals/Head Teachers/ Teachers In Charge (School Heads) go back to the schools and capture the data | |
| Spatial | ||
| Designing the database includes identifying in the spatial data, what will be needed based on the requirements of the analysis; record the locations of the required feature objects, setting the study area boundary (the municipal area or a part of it). (Below is an example how to arrange the spatial data for the Education Sector): | ||
| The object will be different types of schools: preparatory; elementary; secondary; tertiary for which a specific symbol is needed. A public school will have blue and a private school will have red color coding. | ||
| The feature type will be a point. The location will be traced by a GPS. Use if possible one and same place for all schools, for example the flag pole or the main entrance to the school compound for the GPS reading. | SYMBOL for the school | |
![]() |
||
| Pre-school | ||
| A primary school or an elementary (which also can include a pre-school) | ||
| A secondary school/high school (which also can include an elementary school) | ![]() |
|
| (Tertiary) | ![]() |
|
| Creating the database is a critical and time-consuming part of the activity. The completeness and accuracy of the data for use in analysis determines the accuracy of the results. | ||
| Step 4: Analyze the Data | ||
| Based on the defined indicators, different types of analysis can be performed. Analyzing data in a GIS ranges from simple mapping to creating complex spatial models. A model is a representation of reality used to simulate a process, predict an outcome, or analyze a problem. | ||
| School Catchment Radius. The Planning Standard is: | ||
| ?? Km for a Preparatory School (Please refer to Volume 2) | ||
| 2 Km for a Primary School (Please refer to Volume 2) | ||
| Existing or Projected School-going age group population in the Catchment Area Table BI12: Demography: Population Projection by Barangay, Year YYYY, is needed for that exercise. For the analysis below there are two alternatives to visualize: If the municipal policy is that each barangay should have one primary school, the barangay becomes the common denominator presented. | SYMBOL for the barangay | |
| School with a non-acceptable student-teacher ratio. The Planning Standard is | ||
| 1:?? for a Preparatory School (Please refer to Volume 2) | ||
| 1:?? for a Primary School (Please refer to Volume 2) | ||
| School with a non-acceptable student-classroom ratio. The Planning Standard is: | ||
| 1:?? for a Preparatory School (Please refer to Volume 2) | ||
| 1:?? for a Primary School (Please refer to Volume 2) | ||
| Physical Condition of School | ||
| Critical. The condition is dangerous for the children; toilet and washroom facilities are not functioning and may cause the spread of diseases; lack of potable water; | ||
| Poor: The general condition is problematic and causes disturbances for classes especially during the rainy season; the toilet and washrooms facilities are unsanitary | ||
| Fair: Classes can be conducted without serious problems | ||
| If the standard is not properly defined or the above is not valid (for example the barangay is so large so it results in unacceptable walking distances for the pupils), a circle buffer will be indicated, seet example below. | ||
| Step 5: Present the Data | ||
| The final step is to present the results of the analysis. The final products should be effectively communicating the findings to the audience. In most cases, the results of the GIS analysis can best be shown on a map. Charts and reports of selected data are two other ways of presenting the results. Charts and reports can be printed separately, be embedded in the CLUP narrative text or be placed on a map. |
||
| Example below shows the Education Analysis layers put on top of the Base Map: | ||
| The education analysis layers will be put on top of the Base Map. As recommended in Volume 2, it is overlaid with the population density map to show distribution of schools with respect to the number of people residing within an area: | ||
![]() |
||
| Next is to display the problems faced by these school and overlay them on the base map to make it more easy to read and focus on the problem of each schools: | ||
![]() |
||
| Once the school conditions are analyzed with respect to location, this should be overlaid with the population density map to relate it with the population distribution.
The illustration below not only shows what and where the problematic schools are but will also be useful in determining classroom-teacher needs. |

||
| Step 1: Provide a Background and Identify the Objectives of the GIS Analysis | ||
| Major policies and programs against crimes and violence include official policy against domestic violence, crime and weapon control prevention policy and victims of violence assistance programs. The objective is to use GIS to display the crime situation in the municipality/city and the constraints to combat crime that exist today. This information will be used in Step 4 (see Volume 1….) The users of this data are: LGU staff, officials and the general public. The protection information products can be used by the local Philippine National Police.
The final product of this activity will be digital maps showing the location, type and frequency of crimes in relation to the distance, condition and manpower of the police precincts and barangay outposts. |
||
| Step 2: Identify the Indicators to Evaluate Objective Fulfillment | ||
| Existence of areas considered as inaccessible to the police or considered by the public to be dangerous or unsafe.
Below are examples of indicators that can be used in analyzing the provisions of protective services: Ideal Police-to-Population ratio 1 : 500 (Sec 27 of RA 6975 DILG Act) For Jail Protection, a jailhouse should be established. (Chapter V, Sec 62-63 of RA 6975) Source: Volume II : Social Sector (HLURB Guidelines) Additional Standards from Guidelines
Source: Annex V (Sectoral Standards) of Volume V : Land Use (HLURB Guidelines) |
||
| Step 3: Create the Database | ||
| Attribute | ||
| The following attribute tables may be used for this sector. Those in bold are used for the examples
SE26 Police Station Manpower and Condition, Year YYYY |
||
| The Custodian of sector data is the Local Philippine National Police (PNP) station | ||
| Spatial | ||
| Location of crime (point) | symbol | |
| Location of precincts (point) | symbol | |
| Step 4: Analyze the Data | ||
| Manpower and location of precincts would be a security concern for most LGUs especially the 4th – 6th class LGUs. For these towns/cities, the police station will most likely to be situated in the urban areas where the possibility of insurgents hiding within the inaccessible territories is high. | ||
| The following Analyses layers can be prepared based on the Baseline Information: | ||
| Risks | ||
| Area/place with a high frequency of crime ( polygon) | symbol | |
| Physical Condition of police station | ||
| Critical. The condition of buildings, equipment, vehicles is insufficient and/or so poor so that the police cannot service the catchment area sufficiently. | ||
| Poor: The condition of buildings, equipment, vehicles is fast deteriorating so it is likely that the police cannot service the catchment area sufficiently within the planning period. | ||
| Fair: Police services can be conducted without any serious constraints. | ||
| Step 5: Present the Data | ||
| No standardized symbology for criminal offenses is found so far in the Philippines. The photo below shows a map and a legend from a local police station. The given GIS example shows how violent offenses can be symbolized according to the crime committed: | ||

| Step 1: Provide a Background and Identify the Objectives of the GIS Analysis | ||
| The Philippines can claim its uniqueness as the only Christian country in Asia because over 90% of the population is Christian. From the figure of over 90%, 83% of these are Roman Catholics, 9% are Protestants, 5% are Muslims while the remaining 3% are Buddhists or belong to other religion groups.
Places of worship also serve as a sanctuary to people. Whenever calamities or trouble occur, these places will be one of the first places that people will converge to, especially in highly rural barangays. In highly urbanized areas, these places would probably be areas of traffic congestion especially for large gatherings like masses on Sundays. |
||
| The Objective of this analysis is to present the data of Places of Worship. Location of Memorial Parks may also be presented if the LGU feels the need for this particular data. | ||
| Step 2: Identify the Indicators to Evaluate Objective Fulfillment | ||
| There are no indicators for this IP. | ||
| Step 3: Create the Database | ||
| Attributes | ||
| The following attribute tables may be used for this sector. Those in bold are used for the examples here. SE32 Places of Worship, Year YYYY SE33 Cemeteries and Memorial Parks, Year YYYY |
||
| The Custodians of sector data are the NSO, HLURB and LGU for cemeteries and memorial parks. Occupancy of these sites should be gathered directly from the memorial parks administrative offices. | ||
| The following steps need to be taken to get access the data: | ||
| 1 | NSO has data on Household Population by Religious Affiliation in their published household and demography data. | |
| Spatial | ||
| The feature type for the religious institutions will be points and the location will be traced by a GPS/primary survey/secondary source. Use if possible one and same place for all (service), for example the entrance of the sacred edifice for the GPS reading. | SYMBOL for the (service) | |
| Photo showing an example of the spot for GPS reading (if needed) | ||
| Religious institutions will have a point feature and the burial grounds should preferably be presented as a polygon with the same symbol that is used for the institution. Use ESRI US MVTCD3 palette | ||
| Church | ||
| Mosque | ||
| Hindu temple | ||
| Buddhist temple (Pagoda) | ||
| Synagogue | ||

| Step 1: Provide a Background and Identify the Objectives of the GIS Analysis | ||
| Areas for recreation follow a hierarchy of functions. At the city/ municipal level, the town square or plaza is at the top of the hierarchy. The town plaza should be a factor in establishing the image of the town. Central urban functions may be located around the town plaza. Lower order parks should be planned in conjunction with neighborhood and community centers. Lower-end open spaces include barangay parks, neighborhood parks, vest-pocket parks, and tot lots (children’s play areas).
A system of functional open spaces is an important element of the CLUP. Functional open spaces are areas that are deliberately kept in their open character for their contribution toward maintaining the amenity value of the environment. If sufficiently vegetated, open spaces perform ecological services as carbon sink and contribute to rainwater infiltration and aquifer recharge. They also offer opportunities for free recreation for the local residents. At the same time they can serve as protection buffers around hazardous areas and installations. The objective of the GIS analysis is to find out which barangays require recreation areas or additional recreation areas. |
||
| Step 2: Identify the Indicators to Evaluate Objective Fulfillment | ||
| Define Planning Standards for accessibility, service provision/consumer ratio, consumer/housed service, physical condition of features, etc. (refer to volume 2) | ||

| Step 1: Provide a Background and Identify the Objectives of the GIS Analysis | ||
| An industrial area is a site where people go to work and goods are produced. Thus, it contributes to the revenue of the municipality where it is situated. However, it is also a site that often has negative influence on the environment. Some industries pollute air and water; some disturb because of noise; others demand a lot of space, or, their presence aesthetically deteriorates the neighborhood. A prerequisite for dealing with and/or analyzing these factors are: a map showing the location of industries, together with good attribute data.
The objective of this information product is to present an inventory of industries. The inventory will also be a starting point when looking into new locations or expansion areas for existing and/or new industries in the future. |
||
| Step 2: Identify the Indicators to be Used | ||
The industries can be classified in different ways. For an inventory within the CLUP an easy classification based on the hazard and pollution potential should be used. Hazardous industries constitute fire and health hazards, i.e. their wastes have large amounts of combustible and toxic materials. Pollutive industries discharge large amounts of air, water and solid pollutants. The classification categories are:
|
||
| Step 3: Create the Database | ||
| Attributes | ||
| The following attribute tables may be used for this sector (the one in bold font is used in the example). SE39 Industry SE48 Summary of Secondary Economic Activities by Employment, Volume of Products |
||
| Spatial | ||
| The feature type will be points. | ||
| The industrial types can have the following symbols: | ||
| Light Industry | ![]() |
|
| Medium Industry | ![]() |
|
| Heavy Industry | ![]() |
|
| Step 4: Analyze the Data | ||
| There is no analysis presented in this Information Product. As stated in step 1, this IP is an inventory and can be a first step in an analysis of new locations of industries. The industry layer could also be advantageous to use in other planning aspects, e.g. buffer zones around heavy industries can act as a buffer for communities and to prevent encroachment of residential areas in the vicinity. | ||
| Step 5: Present the Data | ||
| This map presents an inventory of the industries within the municipality. The different types are shown with different symbols. | ||

| Tourism enhances the municipality’s economic development. It is therefore important for municipalities/cities with tourism potentials to properly plan and manage these areas. They should be planned in terms of accessibility and provision of facilities/amenities so that tourists can be attracted to go and enjoy these places of interest. It is also necessary that municipal planners consider the carrying capacity of these tourism areas in order to ensure sustainability. The objective of this baseline is to display existing and planned tourist amenities so that conflicts with other land uses can be determined and the appropriate interventions can be planned at the later stage of the planning process. | ||
| Step 2: Identify the Indicators to Evaluate Objective Fulfillment | ||
Indicators and planning standards can be found in Volume 2 of the CLUP Guidelines, such as:

Note: This is a first attempt to provide guidance in preparing the information product needed for the CLUP and is intended to be used hand-in-hand with Volumes 1 and 2. As more knowledge is gathered, the IP will be updated. Likewise, updates may be required due to new or changing land-use policies. Furthermore, data will continuously be prepared by the custodians, which may require updates.

| Step 1: Provide a Background and Identify the Objectives of the GIS Analysis | ||
| The agriculture sector should support the municipality/city in providing food. The more effective the agriculture program, the more self-supportive is the municipality/city. Long distance transportation of produce is also avoided when food is locally produced, and this is an environmental benefit. On the other hand, reforms in the agricultural sector tend to lead to a diminishing number of workers needed and the use of more advanced biocides and fertilizers. The former tendency will encourage urbanization while the latter will negatively affect the environment.
The objective of the GIS analysis should be to present an inventory of the different land uses within the agricultural sector. The inventory also serves as background data to determine if there is enough agricultural land sustainable for food production, to determine the types of crops, livestock, poultry and fisheries and other farm support facilities, and, to determine the location of the irrigated agricultural lands. Based on the suggested data tables, this presentation will also assist the planner to present and monitor agricultural land under different restrictions/programs. Refer to the information product ‘4.09.04 SAFDZ’ that presents prime agricultural areas. |
||
| Step 2: Identify the Indicators of Agriculture Production | ||
| Indicators of the municipality’s capacity to support itself in agricultural production are shown in the food requirement table below. (Table from HLURB Guidelines Volume III – Economic Sector.)
Per Capita Dietary/Food Requirement |
||
| Step 3: Create the Database | ||
| Attributes | ||
| There are four tables of socio-economic information to prepare for Step 4. There is also a project management table for projects within the agricultural sector and an infrastructure table for irrigation systems, which add value to the agricultural analysis.
SE42 Crop Production, Year |
||
| Spatial | ||
| The feature types of the above mentioned datasets are polygons, points (SE45, PM04) and polylines (IS15). If available, it is recommended that an aerial photo is used as backdrop to facilitate the digitizing of the polygons. | ||
| The following layers are prepared: | ||
| Agricultural areas for crop production | ||
| Agricultural areas for livestock and poultry production | ||
| Fishing grounds and aquaculture production | ||
| Support facilities and services: Milling Cold storage Multipurpose drying Pavement Reefer vans Market center Warehouse Other |
Symbol | |
| Projects approved or funded within the agricultural sector | ||
| Irrigation system -private -public |
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - |
|
| Step 4: Analyze the Data | ||
| Within this information product, no further analysis will be done except the resulting map. However, starting from this IP, several analyses can be performed. For example, if the data collected on volume and value of crop and livestock production is consistent and of fair quality, a land revenue analysis can be undertaken. The value of the crop/production revenue is divided by the size of the actual area. A new ‘revenue’ layer will present the result using a color scale. | ||
| Step 5: Present the Data | ||
| Map presenting agricultural land uses (crop and livestock production), irrigation systems, fishing grounds, support facilities, irrigation systems and agricultural projects that are approved or funded for implementation. | ||

| Step 1: Provide a Background and Identify the Objectives of the GIS Analysis | ||
| Forestlands are those lands of the public domain that have been classified as such and declared as needed for forestry purposes. Forestlands are areas which inherently produce more benefits and give better service than when converted to agricultural lands or other uses, such that, those lands are not be titled. Forestlands include Production and Protection Forestlands. After land classification has been done, they are then subdivided into these two categories. The delineation is done by FMB and NAMRIA. Once this is done, those classified as Production Forests can be given management rights to qualified groups.
Production forests are forestlands managed primarily for the production of timber and other tree products. Permits are issued for the use of these areas. A number of tenurial permits are available for the use of these production forests. These are as follows: TLA - Timber License Agreement The DENR’s Forest Management Bureau grants these permits for production forests. Key to this concept of production and protection is sustainable development. |
||
| Step 2: Identify the Indicators to Evaluate Objective Fulfillment | ||
| Permits issued are indicators of Forest production. | ||
| Step 3: Create the Database | ||
| Attributes | ||
| The custodian of the sector data are the Forest Management Bureau, NAMRIA and PAWB. | ||
| The following attribute table was used for this sector. SE46 Forestry Production |
||
| Spatial | ||
| As of the moment, there are very few data available for areas identified for forest production. Though there are a number of permits issued, delineation and identification of forest for production and protection is still being carried out by FMB and NAMRIA. It may also be not possible to acquire exact areas for production forests which are already granted permits, for security against illegal logging. | ||
| Step 4: Analyze the Data | ||
| There is no analysis to be done. | ||
| Step 5: Present the DataAn example of forest land is taken from a Land Classification Map. It is within this forest land that protection and production forest will be determined. | ||
