Abstract

This study aims to identify and evaluate the suitability of residential land on Rempang Island to support sustainable regional planning. The method used is Spatial Multi Criteria Analysis (SMCA) based on Geographic Information Systems (GIS), considering several parameters including land cover, slope, distance from main roads, and disaster-prone areas. The analysis results show that there are areas that are Very Suitable (S1) covering an area of 5,225 ha, areas that are Sufficiently Suitable (S2) covering an area of 252 ha, areas that are Marginally Suitable (S3) covering an area of 10, 974 ha, Temporarily Unsuitable (N1) covering an area of 1 ha, and finally Permanently Unsuitable (N2) covering an area of 243 ha. Based on the results obtained, it can be concluded that most of the Rempang Island area is classified as Marginally Suitable (S3). This study provides valuable spatial information for policymakers and planners in managing land use effectively, minimizing disaster risk, and supporting sustainable development on Rempang Island.
