Spatial segregation at large-scale planned residential bintaro jaya

Abstract

The local government of Jakarta has limited capacity to meet the needs for residential. Therefore, A private developer has the opportunity to help the local government respond by building a large-scale planned residential named Bintaro Jaya. It is developed in the South Jakarta Area and the South Tangerang Region. The development caused a gated community and led to physical and social segregation with the previous local community. This research is aimed to identify the spatial segregation in Bintaro Jaya. These hypotheses are analyzed by using a socio-spatial approach and descriptive analysis. The method is interpreted from Google Earth Imagery map Landsat 8 OLI/TIRS based on the masterplan of Bintaro Jaya to identify delineation settlement status and field observation as an image interpretation data validation. This paper describes the phenomenon of spatial segregation that potentially can be exclusive space. The form of segregation is identified by walls, roads, and economic centers. In which the economic center can be a transitional space that functions as a communal space between segregations.
