Good afternoon, we would like to request your humble office for all the parks location information in the Philippines under Department of Environment and National Resources preferably in a shapefile (.shp) format. We will use the information gathered to improve user experience of Huawei devices users in routing, navigating, and exploring the Petal Maps application. With your data, it will help build the community to be smarter and efficiently use digital locations as mean of knowing the Philippines.
