Abstract
National Zoo of Malaysia or Zoo Negara is one of popular tourist attraction places in Malaysia that receives many visitors every day. Providing the best service and tour information for large volume of visitors every day is the main objective of Zoo Negara. However, the current issue facing by Zoo Negara is its current information medium where they still use printed paper-based mapping system. This medium is not helpful enough for the visitors to navigate inside the zoo as the information is insufficient and troubles Zoo Negara management in updating their map as well. In this paper, we propose a GIS-mobile based application that provides visitors with digital map. The digital map includes information about animals and events inside the zoo. Visitor can also view their current location and visited track on the map using navigation module. Zoo Negara management can regularly update their map and recent information easily through database. � Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.
