Abstract
This study was aimed to analyze the status of land use in Lembah Gumanti District on three time frames in 2000, 2010, 2020 and analyze the impact of land use on people's income and their environment. This research is a quantitative descriptive study by comparing the recorded data both on secondary data published by public institutions and satellite image data as well as primary data collected during the study. The results showed that there had been significant land conversion on land use status at the three points of the year being compared. A sharp decrease occurred in the area of paddy fields and dry land, while on the other hand there was an increase in the status of land use. Satellite imagery data successfully visualize the reduction in the number of water bodies and vegetation which also supports secondary data. On the other hand, there has been a sharp increase in the number of built-up lands, which may be caused by an increase in economic activity and an increase in the need for housing. Land use seems to have an impact in the form of increasing income and community welfare in Lembah Gumanti District, especially in the 2010 to 2020 period significantly. However, land use seems to have a negative impact on environmental status.
