Description
Summary:This research introduces a pioneering digital mapping framework for Indonesian fermented foods that integrates geospatial technologies with traditional gastronomic knowledge systems. Employing Rapid Application Development methodology on the Oracle APEX platform, the study establishes a comprehensive documentation infrastructure capturing the geographical distribution, production methodologies, and cultural significance of diverse fermentation practices across Indonesia's archipelagic landscape. The resulting prototype offers multifunctional capabilities through an intuitive interface design that serves preservation imperatives and tourism development objectives. Findings demonstrate that systematic digital documentation of fermented food traditions creates measurable economic opportunities through enhanced destination competitiveness, specialized culinary tourism routes, and improved market visibility for artisanal producers. The community-driven documentation protocols position local knowledge-holders as primary content contributors, while the system architecture establishes essential connections between geographical contexts and traditional fermentation techniques. This research addresses critical documentation gaps while establishing standardized protocols applicable beyond Indonesia to other regions with significant fermentation heritage. The digital mapping system ultimately functions as both a cultural preservation mechanism and a strategic asset for sustainable gastronomy tourism development, offering a replicable model for transforming endangered culinary knowledge into economically viable digital assets that benefit traditional food-producing communities.
