Pemetaan Kluster Perumahan di Kecamatan Biringkanaya dan Tamalanrea Kota Makassar dengan Quantum GIS

Biringkanaya and Tamalanrea sub-districts are Makassar's eastern suburbs that experience urban sprawl. Regional sprawl (urban sprawl) which occurs one of them is indicated due to uncontrolled housing cluster growth. The phenomenon of urban sprawl has an impact on city morphology, transportation systems, environment and energy. This study aims to analyze the distribution pattern and density level of housing clusters in Biringkanaya and Tamalanrea sub-districts through mapping housing clusters in the region. This research method is carried out by survey for primary data collection in the form of housing cluster and area using Garmin 76 CSX which will be combined with Quickbird imagery maps using Quantum GIS, then digitizing buildings from GPS data overlay and image maps. The results of this study are clear spatial data in the form of a digital map based on geographic information about the position and density of residential clusters in Biringkaya Subdistrict and Tamalanrea District, Makassar City. From the results of this analysis found housing cluster patterns in these two sub-districts scattered following the Independence Pioneering arterial path with a spawling pattern, besides that it also uses a domino pattern and fills between one housing and another. Also Biringkanaya Subdistrict is the most populous sub-district of its housing cluster compared to Kecamatan Tamalanrea.
