Illiterate is someone who can't read and can't write to communicate. The large number of people who are still illiterate in a country is one indicator that shows the country is still not developed. The percentage of illiteracy in 2011 was 4.63 percent of the population in Indonesia, and in 2019 it fell to 1.78 percent of the population in Indonesia who are still illiterate from the total population of Indonesia. The factors that cause illiteracy can be identified from the poverty of the population, dropping out of elementary school (SD), and the condition of the community's social environment. This study aims to improve the literacy skills of the Indonesian people. The data used is sourced from the Central Statistics Agency. The data entered is the population aged 10 years and over who are illiterate (percent) in Indonesia. The number of records used is 34 provinces which are divided into the last 3 years, 2018, 2019, and 2020. The data processing process is carried out using the Geoda application for later visualization. Based on the research conducted, it was found that there has been a decline in illiteracy in the provinces in Indonesia from year to year which shows that the quality of Indonesian human resources can be said to be much better. It is hoped that this research can be used as a basis for decision making for the government in an effort to eradicate illiteracy by province in Indonesia in order to produce quality Indonesian human resources. © 2023 Author(s).
