The first new "50-peso bill" that landed in my hand

1.29.2011- I got my first "new 50-peso bill". Yehey!

Front design: new 50-peso bill
This bill's front design features a fresher look for Pres. Sergio Osmena. The Leyte landing and the First Philippine National Assembly appears on the sides.

At the back is Taal Lake and the fish Maliputo  Caran Ignobilis which is said to thrive only on the said lake. A map of the Philiipines showing the respective location of Taal which is Batangas appears also on the back design.

Back design: new 50-peso bill
Oh well I know many have already had their own new bills too. Anyhow I am just happy I have mine too...

And here's more MUCHO DINERO! hahhahha...



I'm not planning to keep all these... just a piece per new bill will do. I hope I'd get my new 100,500 and 1000-peso bill soon. (^_^)

Free Philippine Administrative Boundaries shapefile

Free Administrative Boundary shapefile can be downloaded here . The coordinate reference system is latitude/longitude and the WGS84 datum. Other file formats such as ESRI geodatabase (.gdb), Google Earth (.kmz), and RData for RProject. Geospatial data from other countries are also available for download here. File Formats A "shapefile" consist of at least three actual files. This is a commonly used format that can be directly used in Arc-anything, DIVA-GIS , and many other programs. Unfortunately, non-latin characters are garbled. An "ESRI geodatabase" is an MS Access fole that can be opened in ArcGIS (an expensive but powerful program). One of its advantages, compared to a shapefile, is that it can store non-latin characters (e.g. Cyrillic and Chinese characters). A "Google Earth .kmz" file can be opened in Google Earth . A "RData" file can be used in R (with the sp package loaded) Some files have been compressed and grouped i

Also this is my first time to import data from a handheld GPS into my GIS. Here's my output map: We we're also asked to georeference a "very old" aerial photo of UP Diliman campus. Here's the result:
