On 2 January 2018, the local government proposed Silokek, a region in the Sijunjung Regency, West Sumatra Province, Indonesia, as a geopark, based on district rule number 188.45/3/KPTS-BPT-2018. This arrangement was based on the idea that a geopark would provide tourist destinations with natural tourism and archaeological, environmental, historical, educational, and cultural components in addition to geology, making this place an indirect example of a complex tourist destination. The Ngalau Basurek Cave is a geosite in this area that is a well-liked tourist destination, although it does not yet have a useful and instructive cave morphometry map. Producing cave morphometric data using the compass and step mapping method and geomorphological analyses of Landsat 8 image data is suggested to identify patterns of relationships with surface karst morphological features. A northeast dip angle trend was visible in the fresh limestone of the Kuantan Formation, which formed cave features as a result of dissolution. The dolinas, uvalas, and cone–kart features, which are represented on topographic maps (DEM-SRTM), demonstrate comparable trends. Dip-angle and strike-line trends were used to obtain a complete relationship between cave morphometry and surface geomorphology in Silokek Geopark.
