OVERVIEW
“The Philippines
Topography”
 Introduction

-Our topic is all about the

Philippines Topography. And in this
Topic, we will know all about the
location, climates, landforms ,water
bodies, volcanoes and esrthquake
that we have in the Philippines.
What is Topography means?
 the arrangement of the natural and artificial physical
features of an area.

 a detailed description or representation on a map of

the natural and artificial features of an area.

What is Location means?

 a particular place or position.

 the action or process of placing

someone or something in a
