Abstract
Groundwater is a primary water resource for human living. In Indonesia, excessive exploitation of groundwater generally occurs in the built-up area due to over-discharge processes characterized by a cone of depression. This research revealed the spatial interaction between groundwater levels and surface topographic using geographically weighted regression in built-up area. Groundwater levels data are obtained from 72 wells in Cikembang, Bandung Regency, whereas surface topographic based on BIG’s DEMNas data which has 8 meters spatial resolution. This study showed significant spatial interaction between groundwater levels and surface topographic in the built-up area. The interaction has a clustered pattern with p-value less than 0.01. It indicated in the area with flat surface topographic has lower groundwater levels than others. There are several points who indicated the cone of depression in the built-up area with flat topographic. The geographically weighted regression model has high spatial variability and better results than the global regression model to assess groundwater level interaction with surface topographic.
