Presentation, Analysis and Interpretation of Data

This chapter mainly presents the analysis and interpretation of data gathered
through the different methods chosen by the researchers.

Site Conditions
The following are the existing conditions of the site identified by the researchers
through observation, document search and interviews.

Location
Figure shows the location of the lot where the urban market center will be
constructed. This site is located in Barangay Poblacion, Toledo City.

`
Topography
Figure presents Toledo Citys slope map indicating that the site has a generally
flat terrain with 0-15% slope. This means that the chosen site is a suitable place for an
infrastructure construction in terms of topography.

Vulnerabilities
The maps shown explain the vulnerabilities of the site to flood, storm surge, soil
erosion and earthquakes.
Figure shows the soil erosion map of Toledo City and based on the map, the site,
located in Brgy. Poblacion, is unclassified as an area prone to erosion.
Meanwhile, Figure shows Toledo Citys map of flood-prone barangays. According
to the figure shown, there is a maximum estimate that 19.8% of the total area of Toledo
City will be prone to flooding especially during rainy seasons. The locations shaded in

GREEN are the locations that would most probably be affected by floods. However, the
site is not likely prone to flooding.
Lastly, Figure shows Toledo Citys map of barangays prone to storm surges. In
the map shown, there is a maximum estimate that 26.84% of the total area of Toledo
City is more likely to be hit by storm surges. The figure shows that the barangays that
will be most probably affected are the barangays shaded in BLUE. These locations are
near coastal areas.

Land Use
The land use of the site identified is heavy commercial area. The land use is
appropriate since an urban market center is commercial in zoning.
