Location Based Service Panduan Pencarian Rumah Sakit dengan Platform Android di Kota Semarang
Abstract: Until now, the
location information of the General Hospital has not yet computerized and many
take advantage of mobile devices. Therefore, it is necessary to study to
facilitate the search for the nearest hospital. Android-based phones have
several features such as the Global Positioning System (GPS), which can be used
to give the user the latest geolocation information, and connectivity with the
3G network. While the Location Based Service (LBS) are services that support
GPS function. The Android platform can also be integrated with the Google Maps
API. Google Maps API is a product from Google that offers the ease of building
applications that require data geolocation and the ability to provide a fairly
complete map. The first step in this research is to study the literature on
Android, GPS, and Google Maps API. The second step is to design applications
with modeling Unified Modeling Language (UML). The final step, carried implementation
using the Java programming language. Based on test results, hospital In the
search application, there are two options to choose a search based on a list of
hospitals or radius of the location of the user. And the use of GPS is very
accurate, but it can only work with a maximum when used in a location free from
obstruction satellite, evident from testing conducted by researchers who
carried out the entire room without any obstructions. Search applications
hospital immediately shows the route to the nearest hospital from the user. At
the hospital Radius of users displayed in the application is the shortest
distance when the straight line drawn between the hospital with the user.
Search applications hospitals can work well in the real environment, ie Android
devices Sony Ericsson Xperia Arc. Android applications are developed with the
target API level 15, can run well too at the API level on it.
