Pagmamapa sa Kapuluan: Map Stories #3 -- this bird has flown

Bird maps are like geovisualised sound bites: a map image opens up new sonic vistas that further expand bird research and exploration. 

Find out more about bird mappings in the Philippines. Visit our website Geonarratives.PH to read more about the Pagmamapa sa Kapuluan project. This UP Diliman OICA-funded project solicits map outputs of Geography students, faculty, staff and alumni as a way to show various mapping undertakings and expand the potential of mapmaking practices beyond technology. This is in co-sponsorship with the UP Department of Geography.

This Pagmamapa sa Kapuluan is a project of the UP Department of Geography and funded by UP Diliman OICA in observance of the geography's 40th anniversary as an academic discipline in the country. This batch of maps is also in line with SDG #15 (Life on Land) of the United Nations.

If you have map stories, we also welcome them and will feature it/them under the Geonarratives section of our website. For this endeavor, you do not need to be affiliated to geography to join. You can submit word maps to tell stories of your encounter with particular spaces in UP campus. You can likewise send sensory maps like smellscape, sonic maps, others. Visit our page and click the "Do you have a map story?" button to submit your storymaps.
