Another function is to establish and maintain a national geodetic control network to serve as common reference for all surveying and mapping activities in the country.

Hydrography Branch (HB) is to acquire and analyze hydrographic and oceanographic data used
for promoting navigational safety and oceanographic research. Outputs are nautical charts, navigational warnings, tide and current predictions.
The Hydrography Branch also actively participates to the International Hydrographic Organization (IHO), and its regional office, the East
Asia Hydrographic Commission, which aims to ensure that all the world's seas, oceans and navigable waters are surveyed and charted according to internationally-accepted standards.

The
Resource Data Analysis Branch (RDAB) is mandated to conduct land cover assessment/evaluation and land classification. Its functions are:
(1) to provide remote sensing services and vital data on the environment, land cover, forestry, agriculture, water resources, and coastal zone, among others; and
(2) to conduct researches on remote sensing and GIS applications.
Geospatial Information System Management Branch
Geospatial Information System Management Branch (GISMB) works toward the sharing, transfer, exchange, packaging, and dissemination
