Abstract
Changes in rice fields are an important phenomenon that affects the sustainability of agriculture and the environment. This study aims to analyze the pattern of changes in rice fields in Makroman Village, using a Geographic Information System (GIS) approach. The method used is spatial analysis which involves such as spatial data creation, spatial data conversion, spatial data clustering, and mathematical calculation of spatial data. The spatial data used in this study include Ikonos Satellite Images of Makroman Village in 2011 and UAV Aerial Photos of Makroman Village in 2019. The results showed that the area of rice fields in Makroman Village increased from 96.196 ha to 129.343 ha in 2011-2019. Spatially, the increase occurred due to the presence of new rice fields and existing rice fields that did not decrease in number. Shrubs become land uses that have the potential to be converted in rice field extensification activities. GIS application is a method that can be used to answer the problems in this study to the level of detail, but some things that need to be considered in the application of this method are the quality of spatial data, especially remote sensing data used.
