MOBILE APPLICATION FOR MONITORING THE GROWTH OF DONATED KIRAY TREES ON THE CISADANE RIVERBANK
Abstract
The riverbank of the Cisadane in South Tangerang, Indonesia, is experiencing erosion issues due to significant fluctuations in water levels and currents. Planting trees with deep and dense root, such as Kiray trees, on the riverbank slopes can help slow down the erosion. Many institutions/individuals have planted trees in the area; however, the survival rate of the tree saplings is rarely monitored. The monitoring of 50 Kiray trees planted by Binus University in June 2024 shows that only 50% of the saplings survive after 2 months. In order to improve the survival rate, it is necessary to monitor the growth of the trees in more detail. This study proposed to develop a mobile application that can be used by many people to register and monitor the growth of the planted trees. The mobile application have been designed based-on the discussion with the riverbank community, to allow multiple users to register and update the data of the trees, including their height and location from time to time.
