Furthermore, based on the Presidential Decree, the one map policy is a strategic direction in the fulfillment of one map that refers to one geospatial reference, one standard, one basis, and one geoportal at a map accuracy level of 1:50,000 scale.
As an acceleration measure, in the Decree of the Minister of Home Affairs concerning the preparation of infrastructure and networks for the one map policy for local governments, the World Resources Institute Indonesia (WRI) in collaboration with BIG provides technical support related to strengthening the implementation of the National Geospatial Information Network (JIGN) in accordance with the cooperation agreement between WRI Indonesia with BIG on strengthening the implementation of geospatial information networks in the provinces of Riau, South Sumatra, Papua and West Papua.
Geoprortal is one of the new phases of efforts to encourage data transparency in Indonesia in general and Riau Province in particular. However, unfortunately at the time of the launch of the geoportal, two of the three categories of success rates for the implementation of one map in Riau Province were still not met, namely the absence of a geospatial information infrastructure development center and the ratification of regulations on the sharing of spatial data, he added.
Clearly, the main objective of socializing the establishment of PPIIG at Unri and network nodes at the Kampar and Siak District levels is to understand and take an inventory of regional problems and needs related to conflict and geospatial management and resolution at the regional level.
Syaiful hopes that this activity will collect information on regional problems and needs related to the management and resolution of regional geospatial data conflicts, and the formation of communication and information networks between BIG, Unri, Riau Provincial Government, Siak and Kampar Regencies to encourage the one map policy.
