Learning Objectives
2.
I. I can identify the different elements of a geohazard map.
II. I can interpret geohazard maps provided by the Mines and
Geosciences Bureau to identify areas prone to landslide and
flooding.
III. I can be aware of how geologically dynamic is the area in
which they live in.
IV. I can be aware of the potential geohazards they are exposed
to in their barangay.
V. I can identify possible safe evacuation routes in case of
landslides and floods.

the different
colors used
to distinguish
different
areas in the
map?

does each
color mean
regarding the
susceptibility
of an area
for a specific
hazard?
III. For each
hazard and level
of susceptibility,
what actions
should someone
in a particular

periods of
intense rain?
To download geohazard maps
For MGB website, you should show the following steps:

I. Go to http://www.mgb.gov.ph

II. Click on the icon on the top left hand-side of the MGB webpage for
GEOHAZARD MAPS. This will bring you to
!http://gdis.denr.gov.ph/mgbpublic/ which will show a map of the
Philippines with squares superimposed on top.

III. Click on the square containing the city or municipality where the
school is located in. This action will download the map in jpeg format.
