Analysis of built-up land development in the center of Boyolali District, Indonesia in 2009 and 2019

Abstract

Built-up land development will continue to increase over time. Population growth and regional spatial plans are examples of several factors that influence the process of implementing built-up land development in an area. Boyolali Sub-district became an area with rapid development of built-up land that occurred between 2009 and 2019. Therefore, this study was conducted to determine the area of land that experienced development and to determine the distribution of the development of undeveloped land into built-up land. This study used satellite imagery in 2009 and 2019 of Boyolali. Those images are interpreted and digitized, resulting in two maps of built-up land of Boyolali Sub-district in 2009 and 2019. The change of undeveloped land into built-up land is not only centered in one place but spread across all areas of the Boyolali Sub-district. The results of this study show that the area of built-up land in Boyolali District increased from 2009 to 2019. The change of undeveloped land into built-up land in Boyolali District was 62.59 ha (625,900 m2) within 10 years.
