Land use change as one of the indicators to formulate the gentrification phase at the diponegoro university semarang

Abstract

Campus as an educational area is one of the areas with the most potential for gentrification. It happened in the Diponegoro University area which first began in 1980 until now. The occurrence of gentrification in the Diponegoro University area has been proven by previous research which shows that this area shows the characteristics of gentrification seen from the physical, social and economic aspects. However, the exact stages / phases of gentrification in the region are not known. Many factors can be used to assess the development of the gentrification phase, such as land cover and changes. The main aim of the present research is to formulate the phase of gentrification occurred in the Diponegoro University based on land use changes from 2006 to the present. The method used is a spatial analysis of image processing in series. The satellite imagery used is the GeoEye-1 type in 2007, 2012 and 2019. The results show that the gentrification phase starts with the entry of immigrants, which is followed by an increase in land values, changes in the face of the area and the migration of indigenous people to other areas. Changes in the area can be seen from the reduced agricultural land area, to the increase number of housing clusters and the emergence of city-scale commercial facilities. The total addition of built-in land in the study area from 2007 to 2019 was 301,171 Ha, with the urban village having the largest increase being Meteseh with the addition of a total built land of 66,913 Ha.
