Judul: Spatial Planning Inconsistency Analysis Viewed from Regional Physical Aspect; A Case Study Kabupaten and Kota Bogor
Abstrak: Regional spatial planning (RTRW) is a general guidance which is used for landuse establishment of a region for a certain period of time. The establishment is based on the consideration of land physical characteristics, socio-economic, politics and cultures. In fact, in the implementation, the considerations are more on socioeconomic, politics and culture than on land physical characteristics. At some stage this could result in disasters such as landslides and floods. In the years 2002 and 2003 floods occurred in Jakarta and almost 60% of the area was inundated (Direktorat Jendral Penataan Ruang 2003). This occurrences apparently resulted from reductions of water infiltration area especially in the upland of Bogor. Referring to the mentioned problems, this study aim (1) to analyze the consistency of RTRW and to determine the prediction factors influencing inconsistency of RTRW; (2) to analysize land cover changes in 1997–2002; and (3) to identify centers area of land cover changes. Analysis methods being used are: (1) Geographic Information System (GIS) for spatial analysis (maps); (2) Principal Component Analysis (PCA) to identify prediction determining factors of RTRW consistency; (3) Multiple Regression Analysis for analyzing correlation between RTRW inconsistency and determining factors of RTRW consistency; (4) Location Quotient (LQ) to identify center areas of land cover change in Kecamatan. The result shows that up to the year 2002 in the two study areas, both are showing indication of inconsistence of spatial planning, the RTRW has been inconsistence at around 22.05% in Kabupaten Bogor , and 5.76% in Kota Bogor. In term of, land cover changes showing in the time range of five years in the built -up areas an increased up to 30.46% for Kabupaten Bogor and 3.45% for Kota Bogor.

Judul: Analisis Perubahan Penggunaan Lahan, Pola Ruang dan Tingkat Perkembangan Wilayah di Kota Bogor
Abstrak: Bogor City is located 60 kms from the Indonesian Capital Jakarta and 120 kms from Bandung the capital of West Java Province. Strategic agricultural land and inexpensive land price have encouraged stakeholders to invest in agricultural sector and also non agricultural sector. Land use conversion is inevitable, although the goverment has set up the regulation to control land usage (Act No 26 year 2007). This research are conducted: (1) To analyze existing land use of Bogor City (land use in 2014). (2) To analyze the land use change in period of 2005-2012. (3) To analyze the consistency of existing land use compare to land allocation in the RTRW of Bogor City. (4) To identify regional development hierarchy level in Bogor City. (5) To determine factors that influencing land use change. This research was started with land usage map designing which retrieved from digitized result on administrative map 1: 5000 scales to ikonos image of Bogor City in years of 2005 and 2012. Consistency and inconsistency is obtained by overlaying land use map in 2012 and land allocation map of Bogor City years 2011-2031 (RTRW map). PODES is used to determine the regional hierarchy level by multiple regression method. Existing land use classified into 9 land use, in sequence from the largest one are: mixed garden, non-wellarrang ed settlement, paddy field, well arranged settlement, trade area, water body, dryland farm, open field and goverment office area. Dryland farm land use changes into 2 land use, open field land use change into 6 land use and paddy field land use change into 6 land use. The consistent existing land use compare to RTRW is 40.95% while inconsistence existing land use is 59.05%. During period of 2006 to 2012, most of regional development hierarchy in Bogor City are the relative constant hierarchy (42 villages/61.8%). 12 villages (17.6%) are increase in the hierarchy whilst 14 villages (20.6%) are decrease in the hierarchy. Factors that influencing land use change of Bogor City in period of 2005-2012 are: area of agricultural land in the years of 2005, social facilities growth, and economy facilities growth
