Abstract

The Bayah Dome Geopark in Lebak Regency possesses significant geological and cultural heritage; however, it currently holds the status of an "Aspiring Geopark." A primary challenge in optimizing its geotourism potential—particularly for the Baduy tribe—is the physical accessibility constraint caused by adverse weather conditions and rugged terrain. This study aims to develop and evaluate a mobile-based 360-degree virtual tour website as an inclusive digital geocultural and educational medium. The research follows a Research and Development (R&D) approach using the Multimedia Development Life Cycle (MDLC) framework, encompassing concept, design, material collection, assembly, testing, and distribution stages. The system integrates 360-degree panoramic visualizations with interactive navigation and informational hotspots to represent Baduy’s local wisdom. Empirical results from black-box testing confirmed 100% functional validity across all system features. Furthermore, a User Acceptance Test (UAT) conducted using a Likert scale yielded an average acceptance index of 82.8%, categorizing the platform as "Very Good." This virtual tour serves as a strategic digital solution for cultural preservation and sustainable geotourism promotion, effectively surmounting geographical and temporal barriers for a global audience.
