Abstract
The use of Information and Communication Technology (ICT) in agriculture has become one of the steps to improve agricultural efficiency, effectiveness, productivity, and also expected to encourage the creation of Precision Agriculture. Precision agriculture has an impact on the efficiency of operational costs to increase margins in the production of agricultural products using ICTs. One of the problems that often arise in agriculture is related to the management of agricultural land in each farmer group area. This information is closely related to the needs of agricultural production facilities and infrastructure, such as the need for fertilizers, seeds, and other resources. Web Mapping System is one of the systems to assist in land or area mapping. In this study, the Web Mapping System is expected to be used to help at agricultural land mapping, owned by farmer members of farmer groups. The developed system will store spatial data from farmland members and farmer groups. The Web Mapping System was developed using the Rapid Application Development (RAD) method, where there are several iterative processes. The result of this study is the Web Mapping System for agricultural land. With this application, farmers can find out the status of the land being cultivated or owned. In addition, the Web Mapping System can record the status of the existing land in a farmer group and the need for agricultural production facilities and infrastructure. Further, the Web Mapping System also provides information in a dashboard that can help farmer groups to manage the land owned by each farmer who is a member of the group.
Highlights
Agriculture is one of the focused fields of development in Indonesia
The results of the application of the system will be explained, which includes an explanation of the process in the land recording information system and a land mapping dashboard, which will later be explained more clearly in each process
The discussion will include an explanation of the appearance, functions, and processes that occur in the system, accompanied by pictures to help explain the steps that occur in the system being applied
Summary
Agriculture is one of the focused fields of development in Indonesia. Various technologies in agriculture are developed to improve agricultural efficiency, effectiveness, and productivity. Information and communication technology (ICT) is used in the development of information systems for agriculture. The development of information systems in agriculture has been carried out by a development team from the Information Technology Faculty (FTI) of Duta Wacana Christian University (UKDW) since 2016. To conduct research related to the development and application of Information Technology in agriculture, a study is first carried out to see the readiness of the Indonesian agricultural community in the use of Information Technology [1] and several applications in agriculture that have been carried out [2]. There are several systems developed, such as the Agricultural Portal [6], Farmer and Farmer Groups Information System [7], Farmers Activity Information System [8], and Information System of Agricultural Products’ Purchases and Sales [9]. Three systems that have been developed can be accessed via the website at http://dutatani.id [6]
