Abstract

Semarang Regency experienced changes in land use from 2010 to 2020, marked by an increase in built-up areas of 3,681.16 hectares, equivalent to 3.61%. The area of built-up land in 2010 was 13,990.46 hectares, increasing to 17,671,62 hectares in 2020. On the other hand, based on data from the Semarang Regency Central Statistics Agency, the population of Semarang Regency reached 1,080,648 people. Along with the increase in population each year, the limited land area owned by Semarang Regency has led to an increase in demand for land, resulting in land changes. With the increase in built-up areas in Semarang Regency, it is necessary to control the use of built-up space through Land Development Guidelines Based on Building Height in Semarang Regency. The method used is a quantitative method with spatial analysis using a Geographic Information System (GIS). The steps taken to produce Land Development Guidelines Based on Building Height in Semarang Regency are as follows: 1) Identification of Land Cover in Semarang Regency, 2) Identification of Settlement Spatial Planning in Semarang Regency, 3) Analysis of Residential Land Suitability in Semarang Regency, and 4) Land Development Directions Based on Height Buildings in Semarang Regency.
