The Spatial Pattern of a Kampong Area in Malang City using a Space Syntax Approach

Abstract

In Indonesia, a kampong is an urban village region where about 75% of the city populace resides. Of late, kampongs have been drawing the attention of city government authorities with regards to formulation of kampong improvement initiatives and the conservation of kampongs by adhering to specific themes. This includes Malang city as well. Concerning one of the many urban planning challenges regarding sustainability, it is essential to monitor the kampong pattern in Malang. This pattern may be used for creating other kampongs using the template. The space syntax approach is utilised for determining the attributes of the kampong spatial patterns in Malang city. Moreover, kampong patterns were compared to determine the anticipated pattern. Depth computation and map connectivity concerning any theme-based Malang kampongs were used. Computing such patterns requires connectivity and depth computations. Justified plots are mathematical tools used for such computations; the DepthMapX software is used for the same. The present research aims to determine computations used for kampong pattern identification utilised for city planning. This computation will help determine which kampong has the most superior depth and connectivity among the reviewed kampongs and which kampong has the most intricate spatial syntax.

Geographical Indications for <i>Tapaktuan-Blangpidie</i> Nutmeg in Aceh, Indonesia:

“…This result illustrates that based on the direction of land use, it is still an area where further cultivation can be tolerated (Ulfah, Hardjomidjodjo et al, 2020), or where development as an agropolitan area can occur as initiated in the adjacent regency, Nagan Raya (Latif, Karim et al, 2022). Also, the spatial pattern should be part of development in the future not only for a small area (Tutuko, Bonifacius et al, 2021) but also for the national area in order to fulfil sustainable development and planning for the better future of the community and designated protected area (Lian, 2018;Peng, Zhao et al, 2022).…”

Influence of the Global Urban Grid on Natural Movement within a Local Public Space

“…In this study, the theoretical and analytical space syntax methods based on the graph theory and idea of urban morphology that were developed in the 1980s by Hillier and Hanson (1984) were applied. These graphical and mathematical methods (Kitchen and Schneider, 2007) measure the quantitative characteristics of urban spaces and architecture, which are reflected in the calculated spatial configuration (H. Boutabba, S. Boutabba et al, 2022;Tutuko, Santoso et al, 2021) and explain social logic using spatial systems (Karimi, 2012). The core of all space syntax explanations is the notion of network graphs (Tutuko, Bonifacius et al, 2021).…”

Studi Komparasi Pola Penataan Permukiman Tepian Sungai di Indonesia dengan Pendekatan Riverfront Architecture

“…Peningkatan jumlah penduduk dan urbanisasi pada kota-kota besar mengakibatkan peningkatan kebutuhan terhadap ketersediaan ruang untuk fasilitas hunian dan fasilitas pendukungnya di kota-kota besar sehingga yang memaksa perkembangan kota ke area pinggiran tanpa adanya perencanaan yang matang ditambah kemampuan sosial ekonomi masyarakat yang tidak mampu menyediakan ruang hunian mereka sendiri namun tetap harus bekerja di kota (Friesen et al, 2018;Idham, 2018;Sabila et al, 2021). Fenomena alih fungsi lahan yang tumbuh secara organik menjadi permukiman informal ini sering ditemui pada daerah-daerah sempadan, mulai dari sempadan rel kereta, pantai, danau, hingga sungai sehingga berakibat pada persebaran dan kepadatan yang tidak merata yang dapat memunculkan masalah-masalah seperti sistem sosial ekonomi, alih fungsi lahan, hingga kerusakan lingkungan yang dapat berpotensi mengakibatakan bencana berupa banjir, erosi, dan longsor (Ilmi, 2019;Sabila et al, 2021;Tutuko et al, 2021;Wahyudien et al, 2018).…”
