ABSTRACT Geographical Information System (GIS) technology has been implemented at Petroleum Development Oman (PDO) within the Exploration Topographic Department, in support of various applications over the previous few years. The primary uses for GIS technology within Exploration are in providing users with simple access to corporate attribute data via a uniform map-based interface, thereby enabling them to carry out data quality control, spatial analysis, and mapping. Initially GIS technology has been implemented with applications linking to the corporate well database, to prospect and lead databases for portfolio management, and to seismic 2-D and 3-D location and interpretation data. Particularly for personnel new to the PDO environment, GIS provides a tool for users to become quickly familiar with the available corporate data and for managers to analyse data in a way not previously possible.

The current level of technology in terms of instruments, devices and software enables the construction of local intelligent transport systems that contribute to the prevention of accidents. It has become possible to build crewless and unmanned vessels. Geographical information services such as Google Maps, Mapbox, OpenStreetMap have already shown their effectiveness. The relevance of the study stems from the possibility to partially automate ship’s route planning nowadays. As navigation monitoring is carried out by means of VHF (very high frequency) - Automatic Identification System (AIS) receivers, the authors propose to collect and analyse data. However, for the construction of the geographical information system and data processing, the authors justified the proposal to build the concept, methodological foundations, mathematical models and scenarios, which will serve as the basis for the development of software for the geographical information system. They propose data types for constructing time/speed matrices for planning optimal routes based on the current navigational situation. The data collected will provide a 12-36 hour forecast and allow for the determination of vessel speeds and times, considering vessel specifications, traffic of other vessels, queue at locks, forecast of hydro- and meteorological conditions, estimates of traffic intensity and density. The service is expected to optimise the route in terms of speed and journey time to meet the transport and logistics challenge.

Futsal menjadi salah satu cabang olahraga yang banyak diminati oleh berbagai kalangan usia di hampir seluruh wilayah di Indonesia, salah satunya di Kota Sukabumi. Dengan banyaknya peminat jenis olahraga ini, maka usaha penyewaan lapangan futsal menjadi suatu bisnis yang menjanjikan. Akan tetapi, kurangnya sistem informasi mengenai tempat penyewaan dan pemesanan lapangan futsal menjadi salah satu permasalahan yang mungkin perlu diatasi. Pada penelitian ini, akan dirancang sebuah aplikasi E-Futsal berbasis sistem operasi Android dengan memanfaatkan teknologi mobile Geographical Information System (GIS). Aplikasi ini dirancang menggunakan CodeIgniter 3.1.3 dengan format data JSON yang support dengan sistem operasi Android. Selain itu, aplikasi ini juga dilengkapi teknologi Global Position System (GPS) untuk mempermudah pengguna dalam pencarian tempat penyewaan lapangan futsal. Hasil dari penelitian ini berupa platform aplikasi yang dapat diakses melalui website dan smartphone Android. Dengan adanya aplikasi ini diharapkan dapat membantu para pelaku usaha penyewaan lapangan futsal dan para pengguna olahraga futsal khususnya di wilayah Kota Sukabumi.Kata kunci: aplikasi, futsal, Android, GIS, GPS Futsal became one of the sports that many interested by various age groups in almost all regions in Indonesia, one of them in Sukabumi. With so many enthusiasts of this type of sport, futsal field leasing business becomes a promising business. However, the lack of information systems on leasing and futsal field booking becomes one of the issues that may need to be addressed. In this research, we will design an E-Futsal application based on Android operating system by utilizing Mobile Geographical Information System (GIS) technology. This application is designed using CodeIgniter 3.1.3 with JSON data format that support with Android operating system. In addition, this application is also equipped with technology Global Position System (GPS) to facilitate the user in searching for futsal field lease. The result of this study is the application platform that can be accessed through websites and Android smartphones. With this application is expected to help the business players futsal field lease and the futsal sports users, especially in Sukabumi area.Keywords: application, futsal, Android, GIS, GPS

In Malaysia, the Geographical Information System (GIS) is widely used by various organizations in both government and private sectors because of its various capabilities. The rapid development process in the large city in Peninsular Malaysia and new area has caused an increasing number of the sewerage treatment plant (STP) maintained by Indah Water Konsortium Sdn Bhd (IWK) every year. Nowadays, with the big services areas and limited staffs the IWK had faced many issues related to the sewerage such as a public complaint on blockage, overflow and others. Thus, based on the powerful function of this GIS, the IWK also has used the GIS application known as Integrated Geographical Information System (IGIS) in their daily routine works. However, due to the weaknesses of this existing system, it cannot be optimally utilized in managing and maintaining the sewerage system more efficient. The main objective of this research focuses on analyzing user requirements to improve IGIS based on the current issues faced by them. The method used in this study is qualitative method using a face-to-face interview with IGIS users in getting any feedback from them on the existing data with an examining what is the main attribute data required. Then a content analysis was used to analyze it by updating all the data required and removing unnecessary data from the IGIS. As a result, the newly updated attribute data into IGIS will help the users to conduct proper planning in controlling the increasing number of STP every year and to manage the sewerage system more efficiently.
