COVID-19 is an infectious respiratory disease caused by the SARS-CoV-2 virus. People who contract COVID-19 will experience some mild to moderate symptoms, and will recover without special treatment. However, some people will experience severe pain and require medical assistance. The massive spread of the Covid virus has attacked almost all regions throughout Indonesia, including the Villages in Ciluengsi District, Bogor Regency. The Muhammadiyah College of Technology (STT Muhammadiyah Ciluengsi) which is established in Cileungsi District, Bogor Regency, is obliged to help provide information on Covid cases to the people of Cileungsi District, Bogor Regency in general and the Villages in Ciluengsi District in particular, so that the Tri Dharma of Higher Education can be applied. The presentation of interactive and real-time information in the form of a GIS Map of the Ciluengsi District which is divided into each sub-district cluster will make it very easy to provide fast and measurable information. The target of this research is to provide information to the public, especially in the Cilungsi Sub-District and related stakeholders regarding the development of the Ciluengsi District Covid case in the form of an interactive and real-time GIS web as well as other supporting information. For the software development method using the prototype method because this method uses an approach to create programs quickly and gradually so that it can be evaluated by users. The application will be built using Leaflet as a Map framework because it can be relied upon to display data in its form and attributes. The use of the Postgre database will be very helpful in storing map data in the form of geo-spatial and other general data
