OPTIMALISASI SISTEM PENGAWASAN KEAMANAN MELALUI TEKNOLOGI CCTV DI KAMPUNG PENDAKI DAN KAWASAN WISATA LEMBANNA KABUPATEN GOWA

Abstract

Lembanna in Gowa Regency sits at the foot of Mount Bawakaraeng and has strong tourism potential. It offers striking panoramas with popular sites such as the Hikers’ Village, waterfalls, and pine forests. The daily flow of residents and hundreds of visitors has stimulated the growth of local MSMEs. The situation also carries risks: each year records show missing visitors, accidents, and fatalities especially among hikers largely due to weak safety systems. Contributing factors include a small population, dispersed settlements, and a wide coverage area, creating a need for real-time remote monitoring. To meet this need, CCTV units integrated with a mobile application were installed and operators received training so security personnel can monitor areas jointly and effectively. The program aims to enhance public safety while reinforcing tourism development in Lembanna. CCTV has been installed at three critical locations. Its deployment has proven useful for improving environmental security, particularly for remote oversight of the Hikers’ Village tourist area. The system is also efficient in power consumption and maintenance costs. In the future, it is expected to remain in long-term use and be expanded with intelligent features, such as detecting suspicious movement, potential fires, littering, and enabling data- driven reporting.
