According to data from the World Bank, 42.5 percent of the country’s land area as of 2020 is made up of agricultural land. Yet, despite the abundance of opportunities to maximize the country’s potential as an agri-superpower, a crisis plagues the industry.
But an emerging technology in the form of GeoMap aims to address the industry’s struggles by allowing users to input data and retrieve insights on what to do next. With Project Leader Engr. Raven C. Tabiongan at the helm of this initiative, GeoMap was approved by the Technology Application & Promotion Institute (DOST-TAPI) as its next supported Technology Innovation for Commercialization (TECHNiCOM) project last October 13, 2022, and was implemented on January 3 this year.

To further its mission of providing opportunities to technopreneurs, the Technology Application and Promotion Institute (DOST-TAPI) conducted a series of writeshops across various regions of the country for the entire month of March. Led by the Applied Communications Unit for Non-inventors (ACU-n), DOST-TAPI launched the writeshop series through TechnoBYAHE—the Institute’s branded event to promote its Technopreneurship Programs.
The TechnoBYAHE sessions were conducted in Puerto Princesa City from March 1 to 3; Taguig City from March 6 to 8; Dipolog City from March 14 to 16; and Batangas City from March 22 to 24. Through the campaign, ACU-n was able to receive a total of 32 proposals for the Venture Financing Program (VFP) and the Technology Innovation for Commercialization Program (TECHNiCOM).
