1. PHILIPPINE REFERENCE SYSTEM OF 1992 (PRS92) A STATUS REPORT A STATUS REPORT

2. BACKGROUND PRS92 serves as the country’s standard reference system for all surveys and mapping activities. PRS92 serves as the fundamental component of the country’s spatial data infrastructure. The role of PRS92 is to provide the medium through which data sets that are used for planning and those generated through the implementation of the different multi-sectoral programs and projects can be inter-related geographically.

INTEGRATION OF SURVEYS/MAPS/PLANS NAMRIA: 1.ALL 1:10,000 TOPO MAPS ARE ALREADY IN PRS92. 2.CONVERSION OF 1:50,000 AND 1:250,000 MAPS AND ADMINISTRATIVE MAPS ONGOING. 3.17.6% OF LAND CLASSIFICATION MAPS HAD BEEN INTEGRATED INTO PRS92. 4.ALL NEW SURVEYS AND THEMATIC MAPS IN PRS92. LMS/LMB: 1. INTEGRATION OF CADASTRAL SURVEYS AND MAPS INTO PRS92 IS BARELY UNDERTAKEN. NO COMPLETE INTEGRATION OF CADASTRAL SURVEYS AND MAPS WAS EVER MADE ON A SINGLE MUNICIPALITY.

9. OTHER COMPONENTS IN THE LMS OTHER IMPORTANT COMPONENTS SUCH AS MONUMENT RECOVERY, NETWORK MAINTENANCE, R & D, IEC AND TRAINING WERE BARELY UNDERTAKEN. LOGISTICS THERE IS INADEQUATE SURVEYING EQUIPMENT, COMPUTER HW AND SW AND COMPETENT PERSONNEL. BUDGET IS LIMITED. PROJECT MANAGEMENT FUNCTIONAL STRUCTURE IS INADEQUATE. AT THE NATIONAL LEVEL, NO PARTICULAR PERSON OR OFFICE WAS DESIGNATED TO ASSUME OVERALL SUPERVISION, COORDINATION AMONG IMPLEMENTING UNITS IS MINIMAL.

10. SUMMARY OF ISSUES AND CONCERNS (STAKEHOLDERS’ CONFERENCE) Serious backlog in densification and integration of existing ENR maps, plans, surveys into PRS 92 (a) inadequate funds (less priority); (b) inadequacies in current implementing structure/mechanisms/strategies; (c) inadequate policies/guidelines; (d) non-compliance by implementing units; (e) inadequate qualified manpower complement/inadequate training; (f) doubtful set of transformation parameters; and (g) implications of the adoption of PRS92 to land titling and registration system.

11. SUMMARY OF ISSUES AND CONCERNS (FOCUSED GROUP DISCUSSIONS) There is a serious backlog in implementation and impending failure to comply by the year 2005 deadline. The transition period was extended from 2000 to 2005 without a definite implementation plan and firm budgetary commitment. Further, no particular person or office was mandated to orchestrate, oversee, and monitor the PRS92 program as a whole, hence, the failure.

12. EXECUTIVE ORDER NO. 321 (02 July 2004) DENR originally proposed a transition period up to year 2015; The Office of the President, however, wanted the end of transition period to coincide with the end of PGMA’s term, i.e., 2010; EO 321 directs the DENR to allocate the necessary funds, issue implementing guidelines, and designate an office which will oversee the implementation of the Order.

13. RECOMMENDATIONS (1) 1.Allocate the necessary funds for the Upgrading and Implementation of PRS92 and include in the Major Final Outputs (MFOs) of NAMRIA and LMB/LMS the ff: a. Inventory, recovery and maintenance of monuments; b. Full densification of Geodetic Control Points c. Integration of surveys and maps into PRS92; d. Conduct of training programs and IEC; e. Equipment procurement and maintenance/upgrade including HW and SW; and f. Provision or realignment of personnel.

18. RECOMMENDATIONS (2) 2. Organize a Unified Program Management Office (UPMO) to orchestrate, oversee, monitor/evaluate and coordinate the upgrading and implementation of PRS92 and design and implement a functional structure which incorporates a set up that guarantees horizontal and vertical coordination among the central office, attached agencies, regional offices and field survey parties/teams. NOTE: Last April 30, 2004 Secretary Gozun issued a memorandum dated April 30, 2004 tasking NAMRIA and LMB to jointly implement the PRS 92.
