Abstract
Bali Island, well known as The Island of The Gods, is a top tourist destination. In 2017, Agung Volcano eruption causes lots of tourist canceled their visits to Bali due to excessive news about the danger to travel to Bali. This was the first research conducted to analyses impact of volcanic disaster to tourist visits using big data in Bali, Indonesia. This research uses big global database or big data to analyses the impact of web news to tourist visits to Bali due to Agung volcano eruption. Big data is a term that describes the large volume of data, both spatial and non-spatial that inundates the world on a day-today basis. Big data in this research were processed from The Global Database of Events, Language, and Tone (GDELT) Project. GDELT project monitors the world's broadcast, print, and web news from nearly every corner of every country creating a free open platform for computing on the entire world. The purpose of this research is to analyses the impact of Agung Volcano eruption to tourist visits to Bali in 2017. Every news data sets from every country, filtered, calculated and spatially analyzed to discover the timeline and impact of Agung Volcano eruption on tourist visits to Bali in 2017. Geographic Information Systems (GIS) were used for calculation and spatial analysis. The result shows that the number of tourist visits were declining in October and November 2017 but raised again in December. November has the highest number of news related to the eruption. After the eruption in December, the number of tourist visits start to rising due to the operational of the airport.

Even though the number of tourists is declining in October and November, number of tourists visit on the same period in 2017 were higher than 2016. Key-words: Agung Volcano eruption, tourist visits, big data
期刊介绍:
Geographia Technica is a journal devoted to the publication of all papers on all aspects of the use of technical and quantitative methods in geographical research. It aims at presenting its readers with the latest developments in G.I.S technology, mathematical methods applicable to any field of geography, territorial micro-scalar and laboratory experiments, and the latest developments induced by the measurement techniques to the geographical research. Geographia Technica is dedicated to all those who understand that nowadays every field of geography can only be described by specific numerical values, variables both oftime and space which require the sort of numerical analysis only possible with the aid of technical and quantitative methods offered by powerful computers and dedicated software. Our understanding of Geographia Technica expands the concept of technical methods applied to geography to its broadest sense and for that, papers of different interests such as: G.l.S, Spatial Analysis, Remote Sensing, Cartography or Geostatistics as well as papers which, by promoting the above mentioned directions bring a technical approach in the fields of hydrology, climatology, geomorphology, human geography territorial planning are more than welcomed provided they are of sufficient wide interest and relevance.
