Abstract

Easier internet access makes space and time boundaries in the real world no longer significant challenges in the virtual world. This means that tourists do not always have to physically visit the places they want. Digital tourism has become a new realm that is positively growing in the current era. Unfortunately, even though this is in great demand in various parts of the world, Indonesia is still not fully exploiting (in positive terms) this potential. Geospatial data and technology can be the primary key in solving these problems and opening broader development potential although data utilization and optimization of existing geospatial technology still need improvement. The various existing innovations are still relatively conventional and do not attract youngsters’ attention. An advanced but fun project is, therefore, needed to bridge geospatial experts, creative innovators, and the youth to develop and accelerate digital tourism in Indonesia. Gamification is a promising solution to this problem. This research uses the 4D method (define, design, develop, disseminate). The gamification resulting from the 4D method is used by researchers as an instrument to compare with conventional tourism media to determine public interest and promotional reach for traveling to Indonesia. The primary data used in this project is the Indonesia Shuttle Radar Topography Mission (SRTM) data. The first part of the results discusses the gamification model that the researchers propose. This model uses Minecraft as a basis for gamification in implementing the exploitable open-world concept. The second part of the results discusses the validation and potential of the gamification that the researchers created through the triangulation of survey data, interviews, and literature.

Abstract

Malaka Village is located in the southwest part of North Lombok Regency. The natural beauty of wavy landscape along coastal area has attracted many tourist-accommodation investments took place in this village, although this brings up a dilemma since the potential economic growth in this place faces a complex natural hazard, especially landslides. The purpose of this study is to get an overview of landslide hazard and examine location suitability of tourist accommodation sites in this area, which can later be used as a reference in advocating disaster risk reduction (DRR) measures. The method used in determining landslide hazard index is spatial (GIS) technique that accommodates variables of: slope rise, rock type, land cover, and rainfall. Based on the weighted overlay result, it is concluded that landslides in Malaka can be devastating (dominated by high hazard), which is confirmed by landslide occurrences at the end of 2022 that were very close to the accommodation sites. Also, an occurrence in 2021 has killed a resident in this village. Digital data on tourism-business locations within this area were taken from online platforms and combined with the findings of a geospatial-based landslide analysis. Based on the suitability analysis through an overlay and buffering operation towards accommodation-location and landslide-hazard layer, it is found that 6 of 30 accommodation sites in Malaka are categorized as low suitability accommodation or dominated by a high and very high hazard category. After comparing landslide features on a related literature and characteristics of past landslides in this area, it is suggested that landslides in Malaka are in form of translational-landslide and rockfall type. Collaborative mitigation efforts that are adapted to the landslide hazard problems are urgently needed to prevent high risks in the future.

Abstract

The area of interest is located on Rupat Island, in the north of the Central Sumatra Basin, and faces directly the Malacca Strait, specifically in the North Rupat District, Bengkalis Regency, Riau Province, with the development of natural tourism objects and attractions. The geology of this area consists of two main formations, namely the Old Superficial Sedimentation Formation (QP) consisting of silt, clay, gravel, and plant residues, and the formation of young sedimentation (QH) consists of clay, silt, slippery gravel, residual plants, and peat swamps. There is also silica sand that is only found on the coastline in the north of Rupat Island, which is greatly influenced by the current of the Malacca Strait as a sediment transportation agent from Indian Ocean and South China Sea. There is a fault structure along with the silica sand deposition creating the main objects of geotourism that are found in the northern Rupat area in the form of Lapin Beach, Pesona Beach, Tanjung Api Beach, and Beting Aceh Beach. To visit the geotourism area both road and sea by boat, also made supporting facilities such as homestays, local road points, and signboard. There is also a diversity of flora and fauna in the form of pine trees, and mangrove forests, mammals such as deer, birds such as hombills, crows, and primates such as long-tailed monkeys, beruk and lutung are quite easy to find along the mangrove forest. There is a diversity of Malay cultures such as Zapin Dance and Safar Bathing. This research was aiming to develop geotourism prospects that have not been explored and create new potential for tourism products in North Rupat, Rupat Island.

Abstract

Raja Ampat became globally known since researeh results revealed the magnificence of its marine biodiversity that was incomparable, and became the best tourism diving destination. As part of the Geopark, understanding of science and knowledge from various fields has been gradually revealed and curated in Raja Ampat. This article will be an introduction to the disclosure of the relationship between geological heritage, biodiversity, and culture in the Raja Ampat Geopark, synthesized through literature studies, interviews and ground checks conducted by various parties. As a result, at least three relations was explained, i.e. (1) the historical biogeographic events of Raja Ampat determined the form of thirteen terrestrial ecosystems and the present of endemic species; (2) the geological heritage of dolines and lagoons creates unique ecosystems for certain marine species; (3) also inter-connectivity between nature and the cultural values passed down by Raja Ampat's ancestors that documented in various forms, like wisdom, folklore and art rocks. In conclusion, we also identified challenges and future directions regarding this emerging field, of which has been adapted into ecotourism implementation within Geopark Raja Ampat.

Abstract

Bawean Island, Gresik Regency is geographically located in the Java Sea, precisely located between Borneo and Java. Currently, Bawean Island is being fought to become a Geological Heritage and continues to be developed, so that it can be proposed as a National Geopark. The Geology, Biology, and Cultural Diversity that exists on Bawean Island are still separate pieces that need further research so that it can be presented in a holistic order as geotourism. The purpose of this study is to examine geosite recommendations on Bawean Island and to reconstruct the geological history of the biological and cultural diversity of the community that developed from the past to the present in a Geosite Distribution Path Map (Geotrack). The methods used are literature review, observation of DEM imagery to determine morphology, and Geosite Potential Survey which is followed by feasibility study calculations based on parameters from the Geological Survey Center. The results of this study are in the form of a Geotrack Map consisting of 24 Geosites (15 Geodiversity, 3 Biodiversity, and 6 Cultural Diversity) which are contained in a digital system in the form of WebGIS so that all elements of society can access it. The occurrence of transgression and marine regression in the past caused by the formation of ancient volcanoes supports the formation of a typical flora and fauna ecosystem on Bawean Island. In addition, the formation of an island in the middle of the Java Sea surrounded by other cultures and civilizations led to the acculturation and cultural assimilation of the Bawean island.

Abstract

Bukit Duabelas National Park (BDNP) Jambi Province is a national protected area that has geodiversity. BDNP forms northwest – southeast oriented, morphologically connected to the Barisan Mountains by the Bangko Basin. Digital elevation model observations show that the morphological orientation of these hills is surrounded by valleys and plains occupied by Paleogene-Neogene sedimentary rocks. The presence of Schist Terantam Formation provides interesting information about the exposed basement. This research uses remote sensing, field observations and stratigraphic analysis, as well as assessing geological complexity. The BDNP Territory is geologically influenced by geological structures such as faults and folds as a result of the simple shear deformation mechanism. Schist from the Terantam Formation and Granite and Pegmatite Intrusions are a consequence of simple shear mechanisms and tectonic orogenesis. Geological complexity of geosite assessment based on the criteria of petrological features, landscape, age of formation, fossil appear, tectonic basement, basement group, cultural diversity, other geological information. The proposed geosite is Terantam Inselberg which is composed of the Terantam Formation of Carboniferous and Jurassic-age of Granite and Pegmatite. The uniqueness of this proposed geosite is that the rocks exposed are the oldest basement rocks on the Sumatra Island. The landscape with Inselberg morphology, of course, is unique and is very rarely found in other areas, then the presence of ethnic groups from the Inner Child Tribe who inhabit the area characterizes cultural diversity. Comparing this proposed geosite with geosites of national and international value in the MJUGGp Territory, it can be concluded that the Terantam Inselberg Geosite is in between the two positions.

Abstract

Why does the earth-quake? When does the land-slide? How do rocks bend and break and what makes lava flow and mountains grow? Geointerpretation activities can explain these fascinating and seemingly incomprehensible global phenomena in simple and fun ways to visitors, tourists and the public. According to renowned interpreter Sam Ham (Ham, 1992), this involves “translating complex technical language and concepts into terms and ideas that people can readily understand”; while “doing it in a way that is entertaining and interesting to people”. Meanwhile almost 2500 years ago, the Chinese philosopher Confucius elegantly confirmed that “if we hear we forget, if we see we remember but if we do we understand”. Geotourism activities within Global Geoparks across the world cater for geotourists who want to know more about how the earth system works, as well as to experience the wonders - (and terrors) - of the natural world. Do-It-Yourself (DIY) geointerpretation activities are simple to design, inexpensive to create and very flexible to deliver to geotourists, anywhere. This hands-on workshop will reveal how geointerpretation is made easy using simple everyday materials. For example, making your own banana benders, broken egg-shell planets and lava sandwiches will demonstrate many geological processes including difficult concepts such as Deep Earth, Deep Impacts and Deep Time. Geointerpretation makes visitor experiences (within Geoparks) more enriching, fulfilling and most importantly fun!.
