A Bathymetric Map for a 1.2 kilometers Bridge Construction between Quezon, Quezon and Lopez, Quezon

The Province of Quezon is rich in every aspect such as economy, tourism, agriculture, and culture. Although, there is a room for improvement, within the Quezon Province are island municipalities that are inaccessible through land transportation. Among these municipalities are Alabat, Perez, and Quezon, Quezon. This study aims to provide the initial requirement in providing land transportation to the municipalities by means of preparing a bathymetric map for the proposed 1.2 km bridge from Lopez, Quezon to Quezon, Quezon. This study focuses on preparing a bathymetric map to be used for a 1.2 km bridge via performing a hydrographic survey to measure the depth of the seas and area to be covered by the path at which the bridge will be built. Among the concepts considered in performance of this study are the standard procedures in performing a hydrographic survey, general knowledge on the use of the instruments to be used in the survey, knowledge on computer software such as AutoLandDesktop and drafting of bathymetric map are applied as well. This study contains the designed and developed bathymetric and profile maps of the area between Quezon, Quezon and Lopez, Quezon which was prepared using the gathered data via GPS receiver and was prepared using the AutoLandDesk application automatically.
