Abstract

This research addresses the critical issue of child health and nutrition in the Mentawai Islands Regency, particularly stunting. Given the limited understanding among parents, the local Community Health Center (Puskesmas) has taken the initiative to conduct stunting mapping in the Mentawai Islands. The objective is to employ a decision support system utilizing the Clustering K-Means method, incorporating assessment criteria encompassing nutritional factors, poverty indicators, and educational aspects. This study aims to enhance parental comprehension, facilitate targeted healthcare interventions, and mitigate stunting prevalence. It leverages the K- Means clustering method to analyze and forecast future trends in stunting within the Mentawai Islands. Furthermore, it employs a Geographic Information System (GIS) to map the distribution of stunted children. As a result, it pinpoints priority zones for stunting intervention, visually represented through digital mapping. This study provides a digital map of priority areas for stunting intervention in the Mentawai Islands, aiding information technology professionals in effectively addressing stunting in children based on established priority levels.
