Pemetaan Kawasan Wisata Berbasis Potensi Lokal melalui Digital Destination Blueprint di Desa Kebonagung Kecamatan Padangan Kabupaten Bojonegoro

Abstract

Kebonagung Village, Padangan Subdistrict, Bojonegoro Regency has various local potentials that can be developed as part of community-based tourism areas. However, these potentials have not yet been mapped in an integrated manner and are not supported by destination plans that can connect spatial aspects, local potentials, information, and the use of digital technology. This community service activity aims to map the tourism potential of the area and prepare a Digital Destination Blueprint as a basis for developing community-based tourism destinations in Kebonagung Village. The activity is carried out using a participatory approach through four stages: identifying and inventorying potentials, mapping tourism areas, preparing the Digital Destination Blueprint, and validation, socialization, and mentoring. Data collection is done through field observation, interviews, documentation, and Focus Group Discussions with the village government and community. The results of the activities showed that the mapping process successfully identified and grouped local potentials, accessibility, supporting facilities, as well as community economic activities that can be developed as components of a tourism area. The mapping results were then integrated into a Digital Destination Blueprint, which includes a map of potentials, area identity, destination narrative, digital information, division of community roles, and development directions for the destination. This activity shows that participatory mapping can be an initial tool to organize local potentials more systematically, while the Digital Destination Blueprint can serve as a reference for developing tourism areas that are integrated, community-based, and adaptive to the use of digital technology.
