BAGUIO CITY – The regional land use
committee (RLUC) technical working group (TWG) members learned mapping
techniques through a 3-day workshop for the enhancement of the Cordillera
regional spatial development framework (RSDF) 2018-2048 on Dec. 5 to 7 here
at the regional office of the National Economic Development
Authority-Cordillera Administrative Region.
The
workshop was conducted by the policy formulation and planning division of
NEDA-CAR as the technical secretariat of the RLUC.
The
RLUC-TWG members who participated in the training were DA, DENR, DILG, DOT,
DPWH, NCIP, NEDA, NIA, and OCD.
Chaired by
the NEDA-CAR Regional Director Milagros Rimando, the RLUC serves as the
coordinative mechanism for land use and physical planning in the region.
One of the
committee’s tasks is to formulate the RSDF which serves as the strategy for
long-term land use development planning in the region taking into account
concentration, connectivity, and disaster mitigation.
Using the
quantum geographical information system (QGIS) program, a free and
open-source software, UP-schooled geodetic engineer Jessie Linn Ablao
discussed basics of the QGIS coordinate reference system (CRS), spatial data
processing and digitizing, among others.
With the
training, it is hoped that the RSDF 2018-2048 will be more visual to aid the
‘man on the street’ to understand and appreciate the technical document
better.

Once completed, the RSDF
2018-20148 shall be presented to the RLUC for approval. The RSDF 2018-2048 is a
framework document for local government units, regional line agencies, and
other stakeholders as reference in their land use planning activities. –
