Abstract
Natural resource management in Indonesia faces major challenges such as illegal exploitation, corruption, and lack of transparency, despite its rich biodiversity and mineral resources. This study aims to examine the role of digital information systems, such as Geographic Information Systems (GIS), blockchain, and the MinerbaOne platform, as instruments of state administration law to support sustainable governance in accordance with Law No. 11 of 2023 concerning Natural Resource Management. A descriptive qualitative approach through multiple case studies was used, with secondary data collection from official government documents, accredited scientific literature, and technical reports, analyzed thematically using NVivo and triangulation of sources for high validity. The results show that GIS improves real-time monitoring of deforestation with 95% accuracy through platforms such as INA-SIGHT KLHK, while blockchain ensures the accountability of unalterable transactions on MinerbaOne, reducing corruption by up to 40% and permit processing time by 30%. This integration strengthens good governance with data as evidence of administrative law, although regulatory challenges, inter-agency integration, and human resource capacity remain. The conclusion affirms that digital systems reform natural resource management to be more transparent and participatory, with solutions for regulatory harmonization and human resource training for full optimization towards sustainable development.
