Abstract
In today's digital era, map and navigation applications have become essential tools for users to find locations, obtain the fastest routes, and explore new places. Google Maps is one of the most popular and comprehensive mapping applications that offers various features, such as navigation. However, despite being highly beneficial, Google Maps has several limitations, particularly regarding map markers, personalized, creating individual routes, and offline map usage on navigation. To address these issues, this research develops an innovative application called StellarPath. StellarPath is a mobile-based digital map location marker application that adopts Location Based Service (LBS) methods for more effective navigation. This application focuses on offline usability as a digital map marker and includes features such as offline maps stored indefinitely, offline navigation, manual route creation, and higher personalization, allowing users to save and manage markers with additional information offline. Test results show a success rate of 92.5%, indicating the application's effectiveness. The conclusion drawn is that the application can download and store maps offline, although it has shortcomings in managing downloaded maps. The offline navigation feature allows users to draw, save, and manage manual routes on the map. Users can create and save location markers with additional information offline. Navigation is flexible, with the option to start navigation by tapping on the map and features that can be enabled or disabled. This research aims to provide a more flexible and personalized navigation solution compared to existing standard map and navigation applications, such as Google Maps.
