Abstract:
One of the problems in addressing the COVID -19 epidemic is that the coverage of COVID -19 vaccination data in each area cannot be immediately displayed. In addition, the COVID-19 vaccination data presented do not include spatial data, which means that the data cannot be used for decision making to address the problem. Although COVID -19 vaccination data are presented through digital platforms. However, a current limitation is that the platforms used to manipulate COVID-19 vaccination data have not supported real-time data manipulation, data processing, or spatial data visualization. As a result, the distribution of vaccinated individuals in each area cannot be tracked. Therefore, this research developed a geospatial data application for real-time data processing and visualization of COVID -19 vaccination using a Geographic Information System (GIS) and Global Positioning System (GPS) for data processing to plan and support decision making by people and officials so that COVID -19 operations can be conducted efficiently and data collection time can be reduced. The software used to develop this platform includes PHP, MySQL, Google Maps API and Leaflet. The results show that the developed platform can be used to monitor and track vaccination data in real time COVID-19.
