Abstract

Every traveler wants to experience hassle-free and safe travel while maintaining an enjoyable journey with the help of user-friendly interfaces and an innovative technological menu system. An interactive information menu system that improves the traveler experience, commercial operations, and tourism information at the Municipality of Indang. It is a technological solution that is relevant to today's demand and interest, and that is readily available data sources and information, which benefit. Specifically, it possesses the following characteristics, including: (1) a place finder that provides registered places in Indang with the right information and allows users to discover new established places in Indang; (2) mapping routes that provide directions and generate routes; and (3) sending the Google Maps URL through a short messaging system (SMS) to the mobile phone of the user, which can be opened in digital maps such as Google Maps. The descriptive method of research was used in this study and was created with Cascading Style Sheet (CSS), Hypertext Markup Language (HTML), Hypertext Processor (PHP), JavaScript (JS) in web development, MySQL for its database, as well as an SMS API for sending map URLs based on the queries. The Agile software model was used, which was composed of sprints, each of which was meant to focus on the developmental adjustments as interactive kiosks were prone to updates and ran into serious changes. Using ISO 9126 software product quality standards, the system received an average rating of 4.71 from respondents, indicating excellent quality and that it served its functions properly and met all of the required requirements.
