    we always knew when navotas was in high tide.
    our colleague who had to pass there to get to the workplace, would be absent on those days.

    Like Dr D mentioned, it is. See Ateneo's Study

    *VISUALIZING SEA LEVEL RISE IN NAVOTAS BY GIS AND TERRAIN MODELING

    Visualizing Sea Level Rise in Navotas by GIS and Terrain Modeling

    [Journal Article] Galgana, G.A., S.C. Abad II, J.R.T. Villarin and M.C.T.M. Vicente. 2004. Visualizing Sea Level Rise in Navotas by GIS and Terrain Modeling. Journal of Environmental Science and Management. 7(1) 1-9.http://www.geoanalytika.com/Galgana_...avotas_SLR.pdf

    Flooding due to sea level rise is a primary concern brought about by climate change. This study focuses on Northern Navotas, Metro Manila, a densely populated urban area affected by frequent diurnal changes in sea level. The study verifies terrain data vis-a-vis its vulnerability to water level rise using Geographic Information System (GIS) and 3D Terrain Modeling-Visualization software. The research introduces a method to evaluate vulnerability and predict how such change in sea level will spatially affect a certain locality. The primary objective is to provide a three-dimensional visualization technique that will integrate geospatial data with possible changes in sea level. Topographic information is linked with planimetric data from existing maps and aerial photography. Visualizations of several levels of increase, at 0.25-meter intervals are presented, with political boundary overlays, selected buildings and aerial images. Results are then compared with demographic data, and the affected population is deduced. Based on one simulation result, about 96.49 hectares within the 200-hectare study area will be affected by a 1-meter rise in sea level, with 54,145 individuals affected. Limited ground truthing during a high tide event verified some of the predicted submergence along the main roads. The high-resolution simulation presented by the study provides an effective means to visually and spatially assess the extent of topographic vulnerabilities of a locality to possible sea level change, and may help communities plan effectively for such events.

    Wondering if the more than 100k increase in innova prices is worth it

    Still on quest looking for new alloy wheels for my car. I go to this shop in President's ave. in Paranaque & asks the sales person if he has 15 inch wheels. Meron daw & shows me the set. I inquire about 1 in particular & he says "pwede yan sa . kotse mo" I asked him what the rim width is & he says standard width daw yun. I asked him what the offset is & he says "zero ata pero bagay yan sa kotse mo". I wish they would at least train their salespeople to answer the right questions. They'd sell you anything.

    I recently bought my wife a Canon Vixia HF R600 camcorder. I just happened to be looking for reviews in YT when I came across this. I should try it out. Pretty good zoom and at night too.

    because many buyers would buy anything described by the seller as "puede!", "kasya!", or "ganda!"... even if it would make their car look like it's a prop for a clown circus act..
    heh heh.

    if i were the buyer and the salesperson did that to me, i'd discretely walk away.
    my favored shops are those who have the gall to tell me something negative... like, "hindi puede, bossing.. tatama..".
    also, being a well-informed ("researched") buyer would help.
