These strategy itself has been influenced by the dynamic of the world which needed to be in concern with cutting-edge technology. Entrepreneurs have to apply related IT/IS that meant for more competitive advantages. Nowadays, Geographic Information System was accepted as an important component for a strategic planning. Thus, this article aims to acknowledge and demonstrate dimensions of GIS implementation for a strategic planning of Sustainable Tourism Paradigm.
