The Model Prototype of WebGIS-based for Organizational Asset Management

Abstract

Large organizations generally have assets distributed over separate locations. The problem is, decisions or policies will be easier to make if they are supported by a system that can dynamically visualize the existence of every asset owned by the organization. The WebGIS-based asset management approach is an alternative solution to this problem. This study examines a proposed WebGIS-based organizational asset management model. An application prototype was developed to test the proposed model using PHP, JavaScript, HTML, and CSS software. The Google Maps API is also used to create a base map. On the back end, authorized users can control and perform input, edit, and delete asset data. On the front end, public users can access public information. The test results of the developed prototype can provide various information on organizational assets visually based on digital maps that suit the needs of its users. The developed prototype still needs to be tested further, especially concerning security aspects, browser compatibility, and display design suitability.
