We value plants significantly more since they give our animals, our food, and a wide range of other goods and services, such as clean water, textiles, and various building materials. This study aimed to evaluate the distribution patterns of the pitcher plant (Nephites Belli) in Northern Mindanao, particularly in Cantilan and Carrascal, Surigao del Sur, Philippines. The geological Position System (GPS) was utilized to locate the exact position of the pitcher plant. The GPS points gathered were then illustrated as the precise positions of the sampling sites using the Geographic Information System (GIS). Further, a hand-held Global Positioning System (GPS) receiver (Gamin GP 12 Personal Navigator) was employed to get coordinates of acceptable boundaries, such as administrative boundaries of the municipal and barangay level, streets, and water sources within the area of study.
