What is the national coordinate reference system for all surveys and maps in the Philippines, established by EO 45 dated January 5, 1993?

The national coordinate reference system used for all surveys and maps in the Philippines is PRS92. It was established by EO 45 dated January 5, 1993 to provide a single, uniform geodetic framework for positioning across the country.

The other options are not coordinate reference systems: one is a type of document, another a project, and the last a data submission record.
