ZONE MAP
The Zonal Map of the Barangay Guisaugon Relocation area provides a detailed breakdown of the internal administrative divisions within its 6-hectare perimeter. The settlement is organized into seven distinct residential zones known as “Puroks,” each varying in size to accommodate the community. Purok 4 represents the largest zone at 798 square meters, followed by Purok 5 at 609 square meters, while Purok 1 is the most compact at 145 square meters. This structured zoning allows local officials to efficiently manage population distribution and ensure that every sector of the relocation site has designated boundaries for governance and service delivery.
WATER RESOURCES MAP
The Water Resources Map for the Barangay Guinsaugon Relocation site highlights the specialized irrigation and drainage infrastructure within its 6-hectare perimeter. The map identifies an extensive network of canals spanning approximately 1.9 kilometers in total length. These water channels are arranged in a systematic grid across the residential area to facilitate efficient water flow and prevent localized flooding within the settlement. By documenting the exact placement of these resources, the map serves as a vital technical reference for maintaining the community’s water management systems.
ROAD NETWORK MAP
The Road Network Map for the Barangay Guinsaugon Relocation area illustrates the internal transportation system designed for this 6-hectare settlement. The map features a systematic grid of Guisaugon Brgy. Roads totaling approximately 1.9 kilometers in length, highlighted in red. These routes are strategically laid out to provide access to all residential sectors, ensuring that every household is connected to the community’s core infrastructure. This spatial record is a key resource for local governance in planning road maintenance, emergency response paths, and future expansion within the relocation site.
SETTLEMENT & INFA. MAP
The Settlement and Infrastructure Map for the Barangay Guinsaugon Relocation site details the organized layout of residential and community facilities within a 6-hectare perimeter. The community features a dense network of households connected by a 1.9-kilometer grid of barangay roads, which ensure accessibility throughout the area. Key social infrastructure is concentrated in the western sector, including an Elementary School, High School, Health Center, and Barangay Hall, alongside recreational spaces like basketball and volleyball courts. By integrating these essential services with landmarks such as the Chapel and GK Store, the map illustrates a self-contained settlement designed to support the daily needs and social well-being of its residents.
EXISTING LAND USE MAP
The Existing Land Use Map of the Barangay Guinsaugon Relocation area (within Catmon) provides a visual record of how the 6-hectare site is currently utilized. The map is dominated by Settlement areas (dark red), which encompass the high-density housing blocks designed for the relocated families. In contrast to the original Guinsaugon site, which was largely agricultural before the 2006 landslide, this relocation site is strictly planned for residential and communal use. A specific section is designated for Recreation (orange), providing residents with vital open space for social and physical activities. This clear zoning reflects a shift from a rural-agricultural landscape to a highly structured, disaster-resilient urban settlement aimed at maximizing safety and social connectivity.
PROTECTION MAP
The Protection Map for the Barangay Guinsaugon Relocation site identifies critical topographic constraints within its ~6-hectare perimeter that require careful environmental management. The map specifically highlights areas with Steep Slopes, which are designated for protection to ensure the stability of the settlement. These high-risk terrains are located in two primary sections: the northern tip within Purok 7 (dark red) and a smaller area in the southwestern portion within Purok 3 (bright red). By demarcating these specific slopes, the map serves as a vital guide for local planners to prevent building in unstable zones and to prioritize soil conservation efforts for the safety of the residents.
TENURE MAP
The Tenure Map of the Barangay Guisaugon Relocation area provides a definitive record of land ownership and legal status within its 6-hectare perimeter. The map indicates that the entire designated area is classified under a single tenure category: Cert. of Ownership areas (represented by the solid brown polygon). This classification confirms that the land has been formally titled and legally secured for the relocated community, providing residents with permanent land rights that are distinct from other public or protected land types in the municipality. By establishing this clear legal framework, the map serves as an essential foundation for long-term residential security and formal property management within the settlement.
INTERVENTION MAP
The Intervention Map for the Barangay Guinsaugon Relocation area identifies specific structural improvements integrated into the community’s infrastructure to enhance safety and durability. Overlaying the 1.9-kilometer road network, the map highlights the installation of Riprap (dark brown areas) along critical perimeter boundaries and internal road segments to provide soil stabilization and prevent erosion. Additionally, a Culvert (orange area) is centrally located to facilitate proper water drainage across the road system. These engineering interventions are vital for maintaining the integrity of the settlement’s transport routes and protecting the residential blocks from potential land degradation.
