Abstract

Villages face challenges in the digital age due to weak governance, poor data quality, and conventional record-keeping methods. Initiatives like digital villages, integrated criminal justice systems, and online platforms address these issues. Digital GIS mapping enhances precision agriculture, sustainable food production, and decision-making by assessing soil quality, infrastructure, and weather. It also aids in land management and remote sensing data. However, Digital villages in Indonesia face challenges due to poor data quality, lack of knowledge, and inadequate technology integration, hindering community services and maximizing potential. Buddagan Village, situated in Pademawu sub-district, East Java, faces challenges such as weak management of village archives, lack of a village potential map, and inadequate digital-based archives, which could hinder community access and decision-making. This community service activity aims to (1)build a GIS-based Digital Village Information System (SIDD) in Buddagan Village, (2)create a digital map of village potential, (3)train village officials, and (4)conduct workshops and FGDs to improve governance, public services, and community welfare. The output of this activity produces (1) a Web-based digital village information system (SIDD), (2) a Buddagan Village official website, (3) a digital map of agricultural potential, and (4) a Monograph book: GIS-based digital village information system.  The study evaluated Buddagan Village's community service activities, revealing significant improvements in officials' understanding and skills. Post-training, officials' skills increased from 20% to 80%, and community participation in managing potential increased from 40% to 70%. Transparency and accountability increased with an official website and adequate information system

Abstract

The potential of marine tourism, especially mangrove ecotourism, in Lembung Village, Pamekasan, has not been optimally promoted due to the limitations of conventional methods and minimal use of digital channels. This condition hinders the visibility and attractiveness of destinations in the digital era. This community service aims to initiate a digital transformation of Lembung Village tourism promotion by developing and implementing an integrated platform (mobile application and website) e-PesesserTour. The implementation method is participatory, involving local partners (Pokdarwis, BUMDes) in needs analysis, design, development, and implementation of the platform. The primary focus of implementation is increasing partner capacity through workshops and intensive mentoring in digital marketing strategies, content creation, and management of the e-PesesserTour platform (https://e-lembung-pesessertour.com) as a promotional tool. The results show the success of launching a functional, informative digital promotion platform that displays the village's attractions, including 3 new tour packages that have been developed. There was a significant increase in the digital capacity of partners, as evidenced by 90% of participants stating an increase in understanding of digital technology and an average score of post-training knowledge/skills tests reaching 85%. During the program implementation period, positive impacts were also observed in the form of an increase in tourist visits of up to 40%, an increase in BUMDes income of up to 50%, and a level of tourist satisfaction reaching 85%, some of which can be attributed to the rise in the quality of digital promotion and services. It was concluded that implementing the e-PesesserTour platform, supported by strengthening HR capacity, played a significant role as a catalyst for the digital transformation of Lembung Village tourism promotion, increasing the visibility and competitiveness of the destination sustainably.
