Lakes are a valuable natural resource that is valued as the best source of freshwater on the Earth's surface. In addition, lakes also influence different facets of human life by providing ecological and tourism revenue. Interestingly, while there is scarcity of lakes in the world, Eastern Visayas (Region VIII) has at least eight lakes with varying levels of human activity. Lake Danao, which is situated in the Lake Danao Natural Park, Ormoc City that covers an area of 148 hectares, supplies potable water to several towns, including Dagami, Burauen, and Pastrana in the Leyte Province. It also doubles as a source of water for rice field irrigation. Other lakes in the region, such as Lake Bito and Lake Mahagnao, serve multiple functions, which include, among others, the aquaculture and eco-tourism industry. Studies on Philippine lakes have consistently increased over the years. However, the data from these studies are not readily available in a form that is accessible to other stakeholders. As a result, lake data that could have been used for modeling and predictive analysis of lake ecosystem dynamics, or up-to-date assessment and monitoring of the state of lake ecosystems remain unused to their full potential. There is a need for systematic management of lake data to enable the development of applications that will help local and national government organizations design and implement well-informed lake management programs.
