Note:
All hazard assessments are based on the available susceptibility maps and the coordinates of the user’s selected
location.
Depending on the basemaps used and methods employed during mapping, discrepancies may be observed
between location of hazards or exposure information and actual ground observations.
In some areas, hazard assessment may be updated as new data become available for interpretation or as a result
of major topographic changes due to onset of natural events.
For site-specific evaluation or construction of critical facilities, detailed engineering assessment and onsite
geotechnical engineering survey may be required.

The possibility of both rain-induced landslide and flooding occurring is not disregarded. Because of the composite
nature of MGB’s 1:10,000-scale Rain-induced Landslide and Flood Susceptibility Maps, it spatially prioritizes the
more frequently occurring and most damaging hazards in an area. Continuous updating is being done.

A storm surge (“daluyong ng bagyo”) is the abnormal rise in sea level that
occurs during tropical cyclones or “bagyo”. It happens when a very strong
tropical cyclone blows-off excessive amounts of seawater toward low-lying
coastal communities.
The Regional Severe Wind Hazard Map represents the 3-second peak gust
wind speed measured at 10-meter height (above ground) over open and flat
terrain. This does not take into account the local factors such as topography,
terrain roughness and shielding from neighbouring structures.
The Regional severe wind hazard maps are used to update the wind zoning
map of the Philippines and as reference in designing building structures.
