Webinar on Digitizing Spatial Planning for a Sustainable Kalimantan
"It is hoped that the digitalization of spatial planning will be useful in the process of formulating policies that are collaborative and participatory, and based on geospatial information," said the Head of Bappeda, Kalimantan Province, Timjur. Prof. Dr. Ir. H. Aswin, MM when giving a keynote speech at the virtual webinar on Spatial Digitization which was held by Mulawarman University.
Mulawarman University in collaboration with Esri Indonesia is holding this Webinar aimed at helping provide insight and understanding regarding the challenges that exist in the planning field and how GIS technology can be a solution in solving various problems. the challenge.
This activity was attended Chancellor of Mulawarman University, East Kalimantan, CEO of Esri Indonesia, Ministry of Agrarian Affairs and Spatial Planning of the Republic of Indonesia or others represents, Head of Bontang City Bappelitbang, Head of Data and Information Analyst Sub-Sector Muhammad Hamsani, ST, M.Si and Staff.
On this occasion Aswin explained The implementation of spatial planning digitalization in Kalimantan The East is very important, considering that East Kalimantan has enormous spatial utilization potential. East Kalimantan itself has a Regional Geospatial Information Network with the name One Data One Map which was launched by the Governor of East Kalimantan in 2014.
One Data One Map is a system that aims to create one accurate and centralized thematic geospatial database and information to support the implementation of regional development, with the aim of availability of geospatial data and thematic geospatial information, integration of geospatial data and thematic geospatial information, availability of sharing facilities, and optimization of the use of geospatial data and thematic geospatial information.
One Data One Map has been integrated with the regional network nodes of Kutai Kartanegara Regency and East Kutai Regency, for 2021 integration has been underway with the City of Balikpapan, the City of Bontang and Berau Regency.
Aswin further explained In an effort to create safe, comfortable and sustainable spatial planning, geospatial innovation is very necessary. One example of geospatial innovation carried out is the application of geospatial-based planning. "An example of the application is that every program/activity plan that will be implemented by the Regional Government must pay attention to existing provisions on spatial patterns and spatial structures, for example in planning the extensification of agricultural land it must be in accordance with its spatial designation. This is where digitalization of spatial planning is needed to facilitate the spatial-based planning process in question," he said.
