Abstract

            We present the development of a spatial database system for land occupation management in Khaopu-Khaoya national park. The aim to design such system lies in the need to avoid data redundancy, systematically store and manage information, and ease of usage. Through the development of the database system, we measured the user satisfaction of using the system to monitor the land occupation management in the national park. The design included collection of data, design and creation of the database system (conceptually, logically, and physically), ground check survey, testing the database system, and finally its application in real world management. The results of this study can be used in two ways: 1) a design based on relational database, collecting data in the form of Geodatabase, processed through a GIS program, consisting of 6 databases, 2) online map presentation processed through the Google My Maps program, with area need for an active internet connection to access the database. At present, the users can only view the land under use and the boundary of Khaopu-Khaoya national park. After the completion of test phase of the spatial database system, through a feedback of 100 officials of Khaopu-Khaoya national park, we obtained an average satisfaction score of 4.21, considered a very good score.
