This case study examines the use of PRECISION Mapping through the Geographic Information System adopted from the Manual on the Precision Enforcement Tool for Protected Areas developed by the DENR and USAID, with collaboration from different agencies. The PRECISION Mapping Tool, an acronym for Protected Resources Environmental Crimes Index and Synchronized Intelligence-Oriented Networks.
PRECISION Enforcement Tool is designed to forecast and map potential environmental threats using secondary data from different stakeholders. Some of these data include historical and vector geospatial data, observed threats data, road development information, and biodiversity data..
To gather and analyze the data on the current state of Minalungao National Park’s land cover, biodiversity, establishments, and environmental violations; To design thematic maps for (1) resources and habitat (2) resources pressure (3) biological threats, and (4) environmental violations;.
3. To develop overlay heatmaps using the PRECISION (Protected Resources Environmental Crimes Index and Synchronized Intelligence-Operated Networks) Law Enforcement Tool of SIBOL/USAID; 4. To evaluate the generated overlay heatmaps using the measuring incidence index using four (4) levels; (1) low, (2) medium, (3) high, and (4) very high..
The research was given clearance by the DENR-PAMB of Minalungao National Park through PAMB Resolution No. 05 Series 2025; Secondary data was gathered and analyzed using GIS, to generate thematic maps;.
The data was categorized into four indices namely, (1) resource habitat, (2) resource pressure (buildings and structures), (3) biological threats, and (4) violations; Generated thematic and heatmaps was analyzed and interpreted using the PRECISION Enforcement Tool’s measuring incidence level; (1) low, (2) medium, (3) high, and (4) very high..

Site inspection and actual survey were conducted within Minalungao National Park to validate three existing structures: the PAMO Building, the Information Center, and the Guest House Using GNSS RTK and AutoCAD with GE Survey, the team confirmed the structures' positions using geospatial data, ensuring accuracy between primary and secondary sources..
The surveyed lots were positioned within park boundaries, with Lot 1 housing the PAMO Building and Information Center, and Lot 2 containing the Guest House, divided by a 10 meter-wide road..

The overall index was calculated using the average of the four parameters: Habitat and Resource Index, Resource Pressure Index, Biological Threats Index, and Violations Index. The scores are 71 for Habitat and Resource Index, 78 for Resource Pressure Index, 68 for Biological Threats Index and 56 for Violations Index, giving a total score of 273. We then divided this total by the number of quadrants (Qn = 112), resulting in an average index value of 2.44..

An index of 2.44 indicates a moderate rating. This value helps us understand the general conditions across the quadrants and can reveal trends in the data. Stakeholders can use this information to find areas that need further improvement. Based on the overall index of 2.44, the result falls between Medium (2) and High (3) on the interpretation table. This value suggests the situation is leaning towards High, signaling increasing concern..
RESULTS AND DISCUSSION. FINAL ORAL DEFENSE | BS GEODETIC ENGINEERING.
While the results of the study effectively identified Medium and High priority enforcement areas, it revealed significant data gaps, particularly in Parameter 4 (Violation Index). These gaps limited the ability to assign accurate index ratings in certain quadrants, which led to an underestimation of risk in areas where enforcement actions or violations were unreported or inconsistently logged. As a result, some quadrants may have received Medium ratings when they may warrant higher enforcement priority or remained unrated due to insufficient data..
To address the significant data gaps in Violation Index, it is essential to conduct focused and systematic data collection. This includes field assessments, thorough review of incident and enforcement reports, and consultations with local enforcement units to reconstruct missing or incomplete records..
Develop standardized reporting protocols to ensure uniformity across all quadrants. By equipping the Protected Area Management Office (PAMO) with consistent data collection tools and procedures, future assessments will be more accurate and reliable, reducing discrepancies caused by varied reporting methods..
