Plant has an important value in human life and also for Hindu people in Bali [Indonesia], which are reasonably familiar with some varieties of useful plants. Plants other than for consumption are also broadly used for some activities which are related to medication, aesthetic, social, culture and Hindu ceremony. Some of these plants ultimately in urban areas are categorized endangered. Even though these plants exist, it is difficult to identify and monitor its existence. An alternative way to overcome this problem is by making use of GIS [geographical information system]. The purpose of this research was to make a particular information system of endangered ceremonial trees in Bali island. There were 94 species of trees that were categorized socially valuable religious in Bali and as many as 39 species of trees were categorized as endangered trees. The location of trees in the field was known by creating distribution maps of trees that have coordinate positions using MapServer GIS software. Those tree species were able to be classified by level of family and completed by codification of trees physical classification and trees morphology by using the MySQL Server. The mapping of digital trees by GIS can quickly provide the spatial information in the form of trees distribution maps that are integrated with related information.
