The development of Science and Techno Park (STP) is one of the government’s efforts to increase competitiveness in the science and technology sectors as well as to improve the regional and national economy. Relevant to this, the government has planned the development of the herbal and horticultural sectors known as the Science and Techno Park of Herbal and Horticultural (STPH2). It is located in Pollung, North Sumatera Province, specifically in the Forest for Specific Purpose (KHDTK). In line with the government’s program to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, the planning of the STP development has used the principle of Low Carbon Development (LCD) as it will bring many benefits from reducing carbon emissions which also supports sustainable regional development programs. This research was carried out by reviewing the STPH2 planning documents, such as the master plan and Detailed Engineering Design (DED), which was followed by identifying components that could reduce carbon emissions and absorb carbon emissions. The results of these findings are then compared with references. The conclusion shows that the planned components, such as building design, land cover, and water and waste management systems have followed the LCD principle.
In the last 2021, Indonesia has had 43 botanical gardens with more than 104.000 specimens that are collected in the Indonesian Botanical Garden. 152 species of them are in threatened condition based on The International Union for Conservation of Nature’s Red List of Threatened Species (IUCN) data. To conserve the floras and exploring them for other purposes such as science development, economic development, and medicine development, the stakeholders including the Indonesian government find it difficult to access the real-time data and information. Indonesia does not have a connected system at the national level that can provide real-time data from all botanical gardens in Indonesia for monitoring and managing the specimens. Some botanical gardens have tried to develop their system to maintain and monitor plant collections. However, without a national connected system that is implemented in all Indonesian gardens, it raises new issues such as long-time collecting data process, inaccurate data, different mechanisms to treat data and different business processes to maintain the plant collections. The purpose of this study is to develop a system, named Makoyana, that can address the issues and provide real-time monitoring and managing information for plant collection at the national level. Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC) and Software Testing Life Cycle (STLC) methodologies are combined to manage the project. The outcomes of this study are the system that provides one gateway platform for stakeholders to find all information about plant collections data, IUCN status, updated statistics, and a national standard for maintaining and collecting data for plant collections in the Indonesian Botanical Garden.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
