Hi, I am writing this letter to request data for our ongoing undergraduate thesis entitled "Mapping of Potential Evacuation Sites Suitable for Flooding in the Barangays of San Miguel, Bulacan". In this study, we aim to generate potential evacuation sites for flooding in San Miguel, Bulacan. Therefore, the updated flood hazard map is crucial for identifying the covered area of our study. 

We humbly request the (2023) shapefile (.shp) data for the Flood Hazard Map of Bulacan Bulacan to ensure the accuracy of our results. We highly value and require reliable data from your office.
