Rafif Rizki Aminoto, Agus Suhendar . Location-based Service Application as Workshop Search Engine in Yogyakarta. International Journal of Computer Applications. 185, 40 ( Nov 2023), 24-28. DOI=10.5120/ijca2023923203
Workshop is a business entity engaged in the sale of goods and services. The focus of the workshop business in general is to sell all the needs of both two-wheeled and four-wheeled vehicles, as well as providing vehicle repair services. In the future lightweight construction will play an even greater role in increasing product efficiency and the reduction of emissions in the automotive industry [1]. With the existence of a workshop, people will find it easier to repair or maintain their vehicles. This research utilizes Location Based Services (LBS) technology to provide information about the nearest workshop to users. Location-based services (LBS) have gained a lot of attention and popularity due to the constant advancements in Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) [2] so this workshop search application will be very useful for everyone. This application development uses the Kotlin programming language. The increased use and the frequent accesses to the Internet make smartphone an attack target for some information collectors [3] because mobile technology offers a promising approach to improving the relationship between customers and workshops to obtain desired information.
