EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The Web-Based Management Information System with Integrated Mapping is a

system that aims to provide a platform for the user to quickly locate and less effort into
finding their relative graves using digital mapping strategies and a platform for the
personnel to access, update, and efficiently maintain the data with the use of an
information system. The researchers decided to make the system for the Forest Lake
Memorial Park in Manaoag, Pangasinan.
To achieve the goals of the project, the researchers will use an interactive web-
based information system as a platform in which both the end users and personnel of the
cemetery/memorial garden can look up information about a particular grave easily and
efficiently. With the current system used, the personnel and visitors, mostly ones who
haven’t visited their loved ones for a long time, manually locate, search, and record the
information and location of the deceased person which is time-consuming and takes a lot
of effort in order the work to be done.
The researchers thought that the current system was already outdated, so they will
recreate it to be an easier, more efficient, and hassle-free system. The information about
the deceased person will be stored in this system, both the user and the personnel will
simply search the deceased name of the person and then the information about that person
will pop up on the screen, such as the location and other information about them, and the
system makes personnel and user experience hassle-free searching in contrast with the
current system.
Implementing this project will help; (1) the administration of the memorial garden
with the information about the graves, i.e. the name of the deceased and the year they
passed away, and (2) the visitors with locating their loved ones’ graves.

CHAPTER I
INTRODUCTION
Cemeteries play a significant role in any community, serving as a place for
remembrance and mourning. Proper planning and maintenance are crucial to continue
fulfilling their vital functions. Cemeteries have been an essential part of civilized
societies, as proper disposal of the dead is necessary for sanitation and cultural well-
being.
Previously, cemetery property maps were hand-drawn or created using cartographic

software on a fixed scale, and records were kept on paper. The related attribute data was
also recorded manually in paper books or spreadsheets and updated similarly. This
traditional method of cemetery mapping and record management is time-consuming,
tedious, and cost-effective. Besides, hard-copy property maps and attribute data are not
connected, making it challenging to update and manage records.
In addition, paper maps and files are hard to store and carry, and they can be easily
misplaced, ripped, or stolen. Paper materials deteriorate over time and are susceptible to
fires and water-related disasters. Pencil markings fade over time and are easily smudged.
Furthermore, the actual information contained within these records varies, and the lack of
standardization means that essential information may not be recorded (Bennett & Davies,
2015; Schmidt, 2018).
The universal definition of cemetery mapping is “the act of understanding the

layout of grave sites and other elements within a cemetery and documenting those
locations.”. It is an important process that helps manage the cemetery’s data and land
information.
An information system (IS), on the other hand, is an interconnected set of

components used to collect, store, process, and transmit data. It can also be used to

analyze problems, visualize complex subjects, and many others.

In this matter, the proponents will develop a Web-Based Information System with
an Integrated Mapping System for Forest Lake Memorial Park. The system will be used
for navigating or locating the relative’s grave in the cemetery and also providing them a
full information on how long their relatives have been deceased. The Information System
will be handling all of the records of every deceased person who is buried in Forest Lake
Memorial Park.
People nowadays, especially on All Saint’s Day and All Soul’s Day. They visit
their loved ones for the memories and have quality time. There’s a time when they can’t
find the graves they are confused and it takes time for too long to find the graves of their
loved ones. Especially on the elders, they can’t find it easily because they are old. It will
be hard for them because they will ask other people where the place of the grave. And
also, visitors from abroad or other cities, can't find it easily so it's hard for them also.
Lastly, the web-based information management system with integrated mapping

will have huge benefits for the admin and the users of the Forest Lake Memorial Park. It
helps them to find graves easily, hassle-free, and not time-consuming. The system will
help the admin to update the system when it needs to be updated. It can be easy for them
to locate the land for reservation.

1.1 PURPOSE AND DESCRIPTION OF THE PROJECT

The goal of the Web-Based Management Information System with Integrated
Mapping is to give users a way to easily and quickly locate their relatives' graves through
the use of digital mapping techniques, as well as a way for staff members to access,
update, and maintain data efficiently through the use of an information system. The
technique was created by the researchers specifically for the Forest Lake Memorial Park
located in Manaoag, Pangasinan.
1.2 STATEMENT OF THE PROBLEM

This Capstone Project can help the Forest Lake Memorial Park Admins and Users
to have the easiest access to the information and graves of one person who is buried.
● Traditionally, visitors have manually locating the graves of their loved ones. What
is the best way to lessen the problem of the visitors?
● What steps are taken to ensure the mapping system is user-friendly and accessible
to visitors and elders of Forest Lake Manaoag?
● What other benefits does the proposed system offer to the cemetery to enhance its
sales?
● What features that is different from your system to others?
1.3 OVERVIEW OF THE CURRENT STATE OF TECHNOLOGY

Due to the observation and interview of the researchers. The Forest Lake Memorial
Park is not finished. There’s a part that is still under construction. The researchers observe
that the Memorial Park has not been buried yet.

It focuses more on Land Reservations and other services. The researchers observe
that the Memorial Park has not been mapped yet. So, the researchers ask for permission to
create a mapping system for the memorial park. To have the easiest way to find the
graves of everyone who was buried in the memorial park.
1.4 OBJECTIVES
1.4.1 General Objectives
The main concern of this Capstone Project is to develop a system that determines
all the information about the deceased persons in Forest Lake Memorial Park. And to help
the end users locate the grave/s of their deceased relatives without having a physical map.
1.4.2 Specific Objectives

The major purpose of this research is to design and develop an Information
Management system and have Integrated Mapping for the Forest Lake Memorial Park. To
make end user and administration perform their task easier and not that complicated. To
create a system that will make the organization's performance satisfactory and excellent.
● The system utilizes GPS technology to precisely locate each graves, ensuring
accuracy.
● The system is designed to be easily accessible and user-friendly for the visitors
and elders of Forest Lake Manaoag.
● By adding advertisement promotion into the system to enhance the experience for
the users visiting Forest Lake Manaoag.
● Having a mapping system that helps visitors and elders to easily find the graves of
their loved ones.

1.6 SCOPES AND LIMITATIONS

The study focuses on Cemetery Mapping and Information System for Forest Lake
Memorial Park. The system plays an important role for the Visitors, Customers, and
employees in Forest Lake Memorial Park. The system has a map to guide and help the
visitors to visit their loved one’s grave, it also shows the Information of specific graves.
The system can also keep important records and information of one grave. Including the
Name, Lot, Block, Age, Date of deceased, and birthday.
1.6.1 Scopes
The study will take an estimated of a whole month to complete as we must examine
its gravesites. We are only limited to those locations and prohibited from entering
personnel-only areas and construction zones. The system will also include:
● Memorial Park Information
1. Contact details, rules and regulations, and visiting hours.

2. Services offered.
● Interactive Mapping
1. Searchable map of the memorial park.

2. User-friendly interface for navigating the map.
1.6.2 Limitations
Drafting of the cemetery’s areas will be needed to navigate where to go. By doing
so, we will organize how we can design a wireframe of what the management system will
look like during the design phase.

The accuracy and completeness of the information will depend on the data provided
by the park management. This system will focus on informational and navigational
purposes and will not include features like memorial purchase or management.

CHAPTER II
REVIEW OF RELATED LITERATURE
A literature review can be defined as a review of the researcher's previous work on
the current system as well as a review of the system that will be established. A literature
study also focuses on the established knowledge and opinions on a topic, as well as their
strengths and limitations. Nowadays, technology is improving and replacing conventional
systems to speed up the process by integrating automated systems.

According to Abdullah, S., Hussain, N. H. M., Talib, N., Hashim, I. C., Hashim, H., &
Osoman, M. A. (2022). Nowadays the internet is the most up-to-date and convenient
source of information. Apart from the Internet, Geographic information systems (GIS) are
also the foundation for the Muslim Graveyard development system. The public and the
Islamic Religious Department will benefit from the establishment of the GIS database and
the Muslim Cemetery Web. This system is sufficient, provides convenience, and is
reliable to everyone, especially to the heirs during their visits to the family grave at the
Muslim cemetery. This established system can deliver grave information to anyone and
aid in faster and more effective processing of death records.

Digital Mapping of Medieval Cemeteries: Case Studies from Austria and Czechia
According to Stefan Eichert (2020). The presented article discusses how to digitize data
on burials and how to provide them to the public in sustainable and comprehensible ways.
Within previous and ongoing projects, the author and his team have developed a database
system (OpenAtlas) that is used for the data acquisition of archaeological and
anthropological research data that also maps information directly to the CIDOC CRM.
Temporal and spatial fuzziness are dealt with following various concepts such as
GeoJSON-T. For providing the data as Linked Open Data, the “linked places” format is
used and an API provides a JSON-LD representation of each entity. Due to the “standard”

approach implemented when publishing cemeteries, data acquisition is mostly achieved

by manually recording the published information in the database.

According to Katie McClymont, and Danielle Sinnett (2021). Cemeteries are currently
playing a role as green infrastructure, but precisely what role this is, whether this can be
enhanced, and whether in so doing this interferes with their purpose of sacred spaces of
remembrance needs further consideration. This includes questions of maintenance. When
new cemetery space is required, the identification of suitable locations needs to
proactively balance these environmental and social/cultural needs.

According to Jonna Hakkila, Ellina Luiro, Sanni Mustonen, Toni Westerlund, Ashley
Colley, Petri Hannula, and Emilia Launne (2019). They aimed to create a as realistic as
possible virtual environment, but study participants still wished for more detail and
authenticity. Comparison between hand-controller button-based walking and
teleportation-based navigation was inconclusive, with pros and cons being noted for both
approaches. The need for dignity in such sensitive cultural heritage environments was
highlighted, e.g. a virtual candle should be respectfully placed on a grave, rather than
dropped.

According to P.M. Barone, K.J. Swanger, N. Stanley-Price, A. Thursfield. This paper

presents partial results of a Ground-Penetrating Radar (GPR) survey conducted in the
oldest section of the Non-Catholic Cemetery in Rome (Italy). Extensive information
exists about the oldest burials in the Cemetery: many were marked by headstones or
horizontal stone markers carrying inscriptions; others are recorded in literary sources but
their precise locations are unknown. Moreover, the headstones and markers can be lost or
misplaced as time passes. GPR survey therefore plays an important role in non-
destructively investigating the subsurface of the cemetery.

According to Jane Holmstron, T. Dupras, Y. Ardagna, L. Vidal (January 14, 2023). Using
ArcGIS, we first created simplified versions of published oxygen and strontium isoscapes
limiting to the borders of modern France. From this, we were able to estimate many
individuals buried at Saint-Jean were either raised locally, or in an area isotopically
similar to that of the southern Rhône River corridor. Others buried in the cemetery were
likely residing in the northern and western regions of modern France during childhood.

According to GUMILA, Juan Diego A. PASIONA, Jeremiah Ayriel M. (October 2018).

With the advancement of technology applied into navigation, we can even find easier
paths to travel—a notable example of navigation combined with technology is the GPS,
which allowed us to keep track of our progress until we reach the desired location. A
management system will be made in which allows the user to search a name or other info
in the map (i.e. birthdate, date died, etc.). Assuming the user found the name, its location
will be highlighted, and once clicked on, and information will pop up. Information can
only be added and updated. Deletion is not required because the planning of burial is
already set in stone.

Graveyard Management with Geographical Information System and Operational

Business Analytics for Negros Occidental
According to Roslyn Gonzaga, Jezza Claire Salvideo, Edward John Octava, Geramae
Baquiano (October 2023), this study introduced a geographical information system (GIS)
with operational business analytics to address these challenges. As an initial deployment,
this system covered only the cemeteries and memorial gardens in Negros Occidental
(Western Visayas, Philippines). In addition, this study streamlined cemetery operations,
improved service delivery, automated data management and analysis, and optimized
gravesite maintenance. The system utilizes GIS technology to map the cemetery and
visualize data, providing a complete overview of burial grounds. By leveraging
operational data, the system enabled data-driven decision-making, optimized resource
allocation, and predictive capabilities. The information system component allows
authorized personnel to access and update burial records, automate billing processes, and
generate reports. It eventually reduced the administrative tasks and ensured accurate and
up-to-date information.

According to Kurt Zeus Lequit Dizon and Renebeth Donguiz (June 2023). The study
examines the socioeconomic status and social protection of Baguio City Cemetery
Workers, as well as their knowledge of cemetery policies. It utilized a descriptive-
quantitative design, primarily using a survey questionnaire. The findings indicate that the
cemetery workers in Baguio City have a partial level of satisfaction with social assistance
programs. They have limited awareness of social insurance programs and labor market
programs provided by the government. Additionally, their knowledge regarding policies
governing cemeteries is considered moderate.

Public Cemetery, Philippines
According to Kurt Zeus Lequit Dizon (October 2023). The study employed both a
quantitative and qualitative design, particularly through survey-questionnaires and
interviews. The data shows that the respondents are moderately knowledgeable on the
identified cemetery policies. This is because attached offices of Baguio LGU
have a constant practice of communicating and orienting the workers on the cemetery
policies. Although workers are moderately knowledgeable and the LGU exerts effort and
initiatives in communicating with the cemetery workers, some problems still persist due
to misinterpretation and stubbornness among the workers.

According to Joyce V. Lapatha, Marie A. Zyra, Largo, Laurice A. Fe, Lawas, Abigail F.

Malagar, James Louies Bacalso Un, B Un, Reynaldo Bontuyan Inocian, Rebecca Leslie,
and J Cabras (February 2019). This research aspires to explore the social well-being of
the families residing in the cemeteries as it aims to spread the awareness of the status of
these families to the government and to the entire citizen in the country while it expands
the knowledge related to this topic for future research. This study utilized a qualitative
research design where researchers interviewed six residents from three public cemeteries.
The responses were transcribed and analyzed through coding and thematic analysis.
2.2 SYNTHESIS
2.2.3 Previous Related Works

Commonly, management of information in cemeteries is uses log books or
spreadsheets to record the owner of the lot, the name of the deceased, and other
information about the lot. This type of record keeping is time consuming and sometimes
wrong information can be entered in the log book due to human error.
Aside from that, mapping systems of most cemeteries today only consists of the map of
the cemetery. These mapping systems, while they have the information and location of
the graves, does not include GPS tracking, which sometimes makes locating the grave
inefficient and time-consuming. Because of these problems, the possible solutions are
making a system for record keeping and adding GPS tracking and route planner in the
mapping system.
2.2.4 Limitations of Previous Work

● Time-consuming: The current record keeping uses log books and spreadsheets,
wherein they enter information manually, in which may cause inaccurate and
redundant entries.
● Tracking: The current mapping systems available for cemeteries does not include
GPS tracking, and creates hassle for people finding the graves of their loved ones.
2.2.5 Strength of Previous Work

● It is able for the management to preserve the data.
● It shows the location of the graves using a digital map.
2.3 Bridging the Gap

The management will be able to access the information system using the website, in
where they can add and update information. After entering the information, the digital
map will be updated in accordance to the information on the database. The visitors will
then be able to access the map of the cemetery using the web. By searching the name of
their deceased, the map will show the location of the grave and the route to be taken. The
help of this system, helps the management record information more easily, and helps the
visitors to find the location of the graves with little to no effort.
CHAPTER III
TECHNICAL BACKGROUND
3.1 OVERVIEW OF CURRENT TECHNOLOGIES TO BE USED IN THE
SYSTEM

The researchers will use GPS (global positioning system) to track and specify routes to be
taken by the users based on their searches. The visitors/users will be given a web-based
map in which they can search/find the graves of their loved ones. Besides that, the
proposed web-based map has a guide for the user to have the directions for them to find
the graves of their loved ones. Nowadays, making a digitally accessible map, especially in
places known to be visited a lot, has become essential due to its accessibility and
efficiency. It is also a lot less time-consuming since within a few taps, one can find the
location as well as the route to be taken.
3.2 RESEARCH DESIGN

The study used a quantitative method, this study requires data to be collected. and
evaluated. and processed respectfully. Given that the sampling method is random
population the survey questionnaires were given respectfully and had authorizations from
the management of Forest Lake Manaoag, wherein the researchers used to identify the
problems. The researchers used an open ended and close ended questions to be answered
by the respondents.
3.3 RESEARCH QUESTIONNAIRE

Cemeteries here in Manaoag have not yet implemented digital mapping systems on their
premises. The lack of a digital mapping system may lead to minor problems such as; the
difficulty of the users to locate the graves of their loved ones.
Visitors/users may struggle to find the burial site they are looking for. This can be
frustrating for friends and family members who wish to pay their respects or maintain the
gravesite. As a result, the following research questions were recognized:
I. How familiar is the respondent with a digital map?
ii. What features and information are included in the digital map?
iii. How security of the system in terms of privacy and accessibility.
iv. How can it improve the experience of the visitor in the memorial park?

3.4 SAMPLE POPULATION AND SAMPLE SIZE

The target sample population of this study is the clients of Forest Lake Memorial
Park Manaoag. The use of sampling techniques, which enable a range of approaches to
accomplish this, allows for the amount of data to be obtained by taking data from simply
a portion of the population rather than the entire population.
3.5 SAMPLING PROCEDURE AND SAMPLING SELECTION

Due to the lack of time for this research, the capability to survey an entire population is
not possible. This research used sampling which is common when formulating
quantitative research, it is the collection of a population that is originally from a larger
population. The process of gathering the needed data for this study is described in the
following steps;
First, the researchers need to secure permission from the clients and employees of Forest
Lake Manaoag to conduct this research on the respondents and to collect data from them.
Second, the questionnaires are distributed to the respondents, and a set of questions to
interview which are the visitors and the business owners during their free time, the
questionnaires were retrieved the same day as they were given the survey questionnaires.
