Many people need geographical information nowadays, such as: the distance
between areas, information about some areas, information about nature resources in that area, to
search for accident area, and others geographical information. Geographical Information System
(GIS) is only one from many others solution to seek for geographical information.
This research aim is to make software that can give some geographical information for
shortest path between towns in East Java. Others information that can be gain is information
about governmental, population, tourism places, mountains, special food, handicraft, and
traditional art. This software is designed with database not using satellite, so much cheaper
compare with using satellite.
This software use Dijkstra’s method to seek the shortest path from one node to another node in
the picture, so this program can’t give alternative path.
GIS can give answer for anything that related with geographical situation. Peoples can use
GIS power to reach for a better life.
