Abstract

Southwest Sumba is a regency located on the island of Sumba and falls under the jurisdiction area of the province of East Nusa Tenggara. This regency is well-known for its wide variety of and interesting tourism objects, such as its nature, culture, and marine tourism. Nevertheless, one of the things that proved to be obstacles in promoting tourism objects to potential visitors is the lack of information about their very own existence. Therefore, any form of location-based information services is particularly needed to be developed so that this so-called information can be accessed in real time, direct routes to tourism objects, and one that can quickly provide information regarding tourism objects. In this research, location-based information services are developed in a form of a mobile app that combines Location Based Service (LBS) with Augmented Reality (AR). This particular application use markerless method planted in AR to track object of Point Of Interest (POIs) for tourism objects. Furthermore, each POIs of tourism objects is tracked based on three different coordinate points for each location and can make it easier for tourists to obtain information regarding tourism objects
