Remote Sensing Based Modeling of Land Use Change on Ulayat Customary Land in Tilatang Kamang Sumatera Barat

Abstract

Ulayat land is traditional West Sumatra land frequently subject to competing demands from various stakeholders, including government agencies, private companies, and local communities. Those demands lead to the need to update geospatial data in the form of land use modeling for further land management purposes. This research used remote sensing technology to develop land use and land cover models based on cellular automata and socio-economic data. This research shows that there will be a significant increase in population in 2030, followed by changes in residential land use. The land use model shows that the use of customary land in most areas is not followed by a change in ownership which shows that tribe rules are still being followed and maintained correctly.
