The effectiveness of landscape management of Gunung Halimun Salak National Park

Gunung Halimun Salak National Park (TNGHS) is a combination of the Mount Halimun and Mount Salak areas which administratively covers the areas of Bogor, Sukabumi, and Banten. The TNGHS landscape is naturally formed. Ideal landscape management can be realized if it can refer to the principle of HCVF (High Conservation Value Forest) which integrates social, economic, and ecological interests. The purpose of this study is to analyze the effectiveness of the management of the TNGHS landscape. This study uses the incorporation of the latest map data from TNGHS which is thoroughly analyzed to examine each of its constituent components. Qualitative descriptive analysis is used to explain spatial ecological data and secondary data on the socio-economic conditions of the communities surrounding TNGHS. The results showed that the landscape of TNGHS was composed of several pitches, including forests (43.9%), plantation forests (11.4%), mixed gardens (4.5%), shrubs (2.5%), fields (8.5%), settlements (4.6%), vacant land (7.5%), developed land (9.1%), and rice fields (4.5%). Based on the results of the research presented, the management of the TNGHS landscape is classified as effective because it can maintain forested areas (main pitches) of more than 50%, but it is important to note landscape changes that might affect forests. Therefore, the advice given to the manager of the TNGHS area is that the manager must monitor and pay attention to changes in spots that are likely to affect the core zone.

Analysis of Supply Chain Risk Mitigation Strategies in the Bogor Compressor Company with the House of Risk Method

Compressor companies in the Bogor area, planning of purchasing raw materials and planning for production are based on direct orders from customers. Sometimes customers make sudden orders or increase the number of orders, so companies must change production schedules and order additional raw materials from suppliers. Not all suppliers can meet the sudden demand of the company. Compressor raw materials and other supporting raw materials often experience delays. This study aims to mitigate the causes of supply chain risk to eliminate and minimize company losses. The mapping of the company’s supply chain activities is based on the SCOR. After risk identification, risk assessment is carried out to determine severity, occurence, and correlation. Furthermore, the ARP value calculation is performed to determine the ranking and risk prioritization. Determination of risk prioritization using the HOR method. Based on the Pareto table, the highest ARP value is above 80%, there are 2 causes of risk A1 and A2 that contribute as much as 86.55% of the total ARP supply, the causes of the risk are: A1: Sudden order addition and A2: Breakdown of internal and/or external communication. These two causes of risk are the priority for prevention by the company.

Landslide susceptibility map of Bogor Area using analytical hierarchy process

Landslide is one of the most common disaster in Bogor City and Bogor Regency. BNPB stated that between 2013–2018 there are 44 landslides with death toll of 68 persons. Therefore, it is important to generate map to identify landslide susceptibility in research area. In this study, we try to create landslide susceptibility map of Bogor area (Bogor Regency and Bogor City) using Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP). We use various factors to identify landslide susceptibility, including slope curvature, slope gradient, topographic wetness index, slope aspect, elevation, stream power index, distance to river, river density, distance to lineament, lineament density, lithology type, soil type, normalized differential vegetation index, rain intensity, land cover, distance to road, and building density. Various factors above are derivative from openly accessed data of Digital Elevation Model (DEM), landslide distribution, Bakosurtanal Map, Landsat 8 Imagery, engineering geology map, rain intensity data, and soil type map. After all, input data collected, the landslide susceptibility map is created using the AHP method. To validate the result, Receiver Operating Characteristic (ROC) applied, the value of the area under the curve (AUC) to determine the success rate of the AHP method is 0.834, this value represents that the landslide suscepbility map produced by the AHP method is a good model.

Designing Model for Truck Assignment Problem in Beef Delivery Using DBSCAN Algorithm

In beef route delivery, many logistics companies have problems in making delivery plans correctly. Most logistics companies have a limited number of trucks, but there are shipping schedules, locations and volumes of demand is not fixed, in addition to returning products with various reasons that must be collected. Therefore the purpose of this study is to assign trucks to fulfill all beef delivery activities at a minimum cost. One reason for research on truck assignments in beef delivery is the high cost of shipping because it uses cold chains. This study uses the DBSCAN method to obtain density values based on customer distance to the central warehouse and the number of delivery requests, the data used in this study is the data of product delivery to customers for 6 months. Clustering research results using DBSCAN show the maximum values for epsilon 0.7 and Minpoints 2 are 3 clusters with 6 noises. with these results divided of trucks based on clusters is 2 trucks for the area of Banten, 7 trucks for the area of Jakarta, Bogor, and Bekasi, 2 trucks for Malang, and Surabaya. And 1 truck for the Bali area and noise or non-permanent delivery. Keywords: Truck assignment, DBSCAN, algorithm, beef delivery.

Predictors of Adolescent Academic Achievement: The Role of Individual and Family Socioeconomic Factors

Application of Waterfall Model In Development of Work Training Acceptance System

Unemployment became a social problem for the community, so they could not meet their life needs. One cause because they do not have special skills, so it is difficult to get a job. Therefore, in every local government through the UPTD Balai Tenaga Kerja, it often conducts work training for those who need it. However, the system applied in the UPTD Bogor area is still conventional. Causing problems such as data readings are less obvious; form storage and documents are not neatly arranged, so some documents are missing and lost. It resulted in a loss for the participants who would participate in job training. So it takes the development of the system to solve the problem. To improve the existing system, that is from conventional to computerized. For the development of this system, it is necessary to take steps such as those in the waterfall model. The result of the development of this system is the design of a web-based work training acceptance system that can facilitate participants to access online in the selection of the desired work exercises, and the storage of documents will be stored neatly in a database.
