Sistem Pendukung Keputusan untuk Verifikasi dan Validasi Data Permohonan Pertanahan pada Dinas Pertanahan Kabupaten Sumba Barat Daya

The verification and validation process for land application data at the Southwest Sumba Regency Land Office has been carried out manually, which often results in delays, data inconsistencies, and the potential for errors in decision-making. These problems impact the low efficiency of public services and the accuracy of managed data. Therefore, this study aims to develop a Decision Support Sistem (DSS) that can assist the verification and validation process for land application data sistematically, quickly, and objectively. This sistem is built using the Simple Additive Weighting (SAW) method, which functions to determine the level of eligibility of an application based on several criteria, namely completeness of documents, land status, legality of ownership, suitability of applicant data, and dispute history. The sistem design process is carried out through several stages, including needs analysis, design, implementation, testing, and evaluation. The results show that the implementation of a SAW-based DSS can increase the efficiency of the verification process by up to 65%, and increase the accuracy of validation results by up to 90% compared to manual methods. This sistem provides automatic decision recommendations, thus assisting officers in assessing the eligibility of land applications in a transparent and consistent manner. Thus, this sistem has the potential to be an effective solution to support the digitalization of public services in the land sector in Southwest Sumba Regency.
