| dc.description.abstract | The objective of this research is to build Web-based GIS Information System that provides spatial and non-spatial tourism information via Internet environment. To reach the goal of this research, there are several activities that should be done. The first activity is design tourism database. This database has two types of data: non-spatial and spatial. Physically, Non-spatial data will be stored in Mysql DBMS. Spatial data will be stored in ESRI Shape format. The second activity is design Web-based GIS user interface to allow tourist to communicate with system. This activity is conducted by using HTML code, Java Script, and MacroMedia Flash. The last activity is to construct programming code to deal with tourism database. PHP programming language was used to access nonspatial data. MapServer and PhpMapScript was used to access spatial data. The result of this research is a Web-based GIS tourism information system, which has several functions for assisting tourist. Tourist not only can obtain information about tourism object but also can obtain the map of tourism object. The system also provides several functions for tourism facility such as: search hotel, flight schedule, train schedule, and tourism office | id |
