Algorithm is very useful to find shortest route. Peoples need a map to find route from current location to destination location. For finding the shortest route, it needs a GPS for digital maps. Algorithm is very important for finding tourism place shortest route because peoples can know about the shortest route from their current location to tourism place location. Many people want to know about the shortest route to go to their tourism place destination. With this algorithm it can ease people to find tourism place, increase the number of tourism visits and gain profit for tourism place and accommodation business. There are some factors that influence for choose the best algorithm for find shortest route are cost, time, distance, values, nodes, parameters, vertex, and edges. It must find the best algorithm to find shortest route when we build an application about tourism place so that the shortest route can be found by maps accurately. Algorithm to find shortest route must have accuracy and tremendous usefulness. The aims of this paper are reviews algorithms that used to find shortest route, algorithm process runs, the used of algorithm, a factor that influence used algorithm to find shortest route especially tourism place. This paper will give benefits to ministry of tourism to understanding about algorithm to find tourism place shortest route and they could build an apps that can ease peoples for find shortest route to their tourism place. The content of this paper are algorithms definition, algorithm usability and algorithms run process.
