The Faculty of Mathematics and Natural Sciences, University of Indonesia through the Geography Study Program (Prodi) in collaboration with Esri Indonesia, held a National Seminar with the theme \"The Role of Spatial Big Data in the 4.0 Era\" on Wednesday, November 27, 2019 at the Convention Hall, UI Campus, Depok.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Seminar yang menjadi salah satu rangkaian acara Geography Days 2019 (G-Days 11th<\/sup>)<\/em> was held in order to welcome the era of the industrial revolution 4.0 or the fourth world industrial revolution, where technology has become the basis of human life and has influenced many aspects of life in various fields including geography.<\/p>\n\n\n\n In this era of the industrial revolution 4.0, the role of technology Artificial Intelligence <\/em>(AI) and Spatial Big Data are very important as the spearhead of the development of geospatial information technology, including in the sustainable development of Indonesia through the implementation of the One Map Policy, disaster management to reduce material and non-material losses, to handling the problems of processing and managing very large spatial data.<\/p>\n\n\n\n From the roles of AI and Spatial Big Data, it can be seen that geospatial information is built for certain decision-making in an organization or country. By compiling geospatial information, a policy built by Geographic Analysis is more accurate and easy to understand. This can be seen in the development of a geoportal system to provide various information about spatial information.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Dean of FMIPA UI Prof. Dr. rer. nat. Abdul Haris said, as an academic institution that has a role in research and community service in the field of science, one of which is geospatial, FMIPA UI feels the need to increase its important role in supporting sustainable national development along with the development of information technology, including through the Geographic Information System (GIS) as a forum for the development of geographical science in information technology.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \"Geographic information management for regional development needs to be supported by advanced technology, human resource development and community service as well as conducting scientific research to provide solutions to problems in society,\" said Prof. Haris.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
