PHIL-LiDAR

LiDAR stands for Light Detection and Ranging, a remote sensing technology that uses pulsating laser lights to acquire high-resolution and accurate elevation data. LiDAR can help Filipino communities be better prepared with early warning systems even for highly destructive super typhoons. The PHIL-LiDAR 1 expands coverage to 257 river basins nationwide to provide more detailed, up-to-date, and high-resolution flood hazard maps. The PHIL-LiDAR 2 is doing resources assessment to complement existing efforts of national government agencies. Through science the LiDAR is very useful to us, PHIL-LiDAR 1 has lots of project such as; LiDAR Data Acquisition Component (DAC), LiDAR Data Validation and Bathymetry Component (DVBC), LiDAR Calibration, Point Cloud Classification and Image Orthorectification Component (DPPC) and etc. Also PHIL-LiDAR 2 has lots of project such as; Agricultural Resources and Facilities Inventory from LiDAR surveys (PARMap), Coastal Resources Inventory from LiDAR surveys (CoastMap), Forest Resources Extraction from LiDAR surveys (FRExls) and etc.

DOST-NOAH

Nationwide Operational Assessment of Hazards or commonly known as DOST-NOAH, NOAH’s mission is to undertake disaster science research and development, advance the use of cutting edge technologies and recommend innovative information services in government; disaster prevention and mitigation efforts. NOAH presently have nine (9) component project such as; Hydromet Sensors Development, Dream-LIDAR 3D Mapping, FLOOD NET-Flood Information Network, Strategic Communication, Disaster Management using WebGIS and many more. Project NOAH is really amazing for it can locate the disaster located in each places in the Philippines. As a student, It can really help us to develop more learning to make also an organization in undertaking or help to know more about the calamities that are destructing our environment or places in the near future.
