Dear eFOI user,
Mabuhay!
Thank you for utilizing the eFOI portal (www.foi.gov.ph) and exercising your right to information under Executive Order No. 2, s. 2016 on Freedom of Information in the Executive Branch.
We have received your request on Digital Terrain Model for Davao del Norte, dated Dec. 10, 2024.
While our primary objective is to provide information whenever possible, we regret to inform you that the requested information is not available at this Office. We had a previously completed Phil-LiDAR 2 project in 2017, wherein LiDAR-derived DTM and related datasets were produced; however, we no longer retain these data following the conclusion of the project. Nevertheless, all project outputs were formally turned over to our lead institution, the UP Diliman Training Center for Applied Geodesy and Photogrammetry (TCAGP). Local Government Units (LGUs) and other interested parties may request access to the data, subject to availability, through the designated data request portal. Detailed instructions for submitting a request are provided on the portal:
