Abstract

Abstract.These days, many developing countries, especially island nations such as Indonesia would try to increase productivity in tourism by trying to improve facilities and services to the tourists and travelers. With so many beauty and diversity in Indonesia, we should see this potential and create a cont.ainer that can help the people in the world to see the natural beauty found in this country. If this can be realized it will cause a positive impact for both parties, especially governments in the tourist attraction region. However, it is still cannot be realized until t.oday due to the absence of a facility-based of information visualization that can assist travelers in obtaining information about tourist attractions in Indonesia. This paper tries to display a web-based concept of t.ourism services that can help the tourists in getting the information, location and also the shortest path to reach a tourist destination.
