ID TEXT – River asset recovery activities in the irrigation area of the Dinas PU Irrigation Banyuwangi in the Bajulmati region, Secawan Bate and Kumbo certainly have many clear benefits. The transformation of physical maps to digital is of course also one of the environmentally friendly campaigns by minimizing the use of paper.
The first benefit is not about accessibility and easier search. Service Secretary PU Irrigation Banyuwangi, Riza Al-Fahroby say, by having a map of irrigation canals in digital format, The Irrigation Service can easily access and find the necessary information.
Digital data can be systematically organized and equipped with a search function that allows quick identification and localization of irrigation canals. This helps speed up the decision-making process and corrective actions.
Another benefit is the efficiency of management and planning. According to Riza, Irrigation canal maps in digital format provide convenience in managing and planning the maintenance and repair of irrigation canals.
“Service can easily track treatment history, monitor channel conditions, and planning maintenance activities systematically based on digital data. This helps improve operational efficiency and optimize resource use,” clear.
Seal it, This also has benefits for spatial analysis and modeling. With irrigation canal maps in digital format, Dinas Irrigation can carry out in-depth spatial analysis and modeling to identify water flow patterns, determine the level of water demand at various points, and predicting the impact of changes in conditions of irrigation canals.
“This analysis can help make better decisions in managing and increasing the efficiency of irrigation systems,” he said.
No less important, asset recovery also expands collaboration and information sharing. Irrigation canal map data that has been converted into a digital format facilitates collaboration and information sharing with related parties, including farmers, irrigation expert, and other related institutions.
“Digital maps can be easily shared via electronic communication channels, enable wider access and better understanding of irrigation systems by all stakeholders,” he said.
On the other hand, this is also a treatment of the history of irrigation development in Banyuwangi from the colonial era to the present. There too, there are many techniques that can be learned to enhance sustainable development in the future.
In total, the transition of irrigation canal maps from physical to digital format through asset recovery activities provides significant benefits in management, efficiency, and reliability of the irrigation system.
“Digital data allows for better accessibility, deeper analysis, more effective collaboration. And this also treats the history that exists to be able to learn together,” clear.
