ABSTRACT
Keywords: coordination,
land use, regional
planning.
Land use is the result of every form of intervention of human
activities on land on the earth's surface that is dynamic and
functions to meet the needs of life, both material and
spiritual. Regional Spatial Planning is a form of intervention
that is carried out so that human interaction with the
environment can run harmoniously, harmoniously, and
balanced. This aims to achieve human welfare. This study
aims to identify land use in the Pekalongan Regency in 2023
and identify the alignment of land use with the RTRW of the
Pekalongan Regency. The method used is the analysis of
geographic information and the logical matrix of alignment.
The results of the study show that the study area has 11 types
of land use with the largest area, namely rice fields (3,223.34
Ha), settlements (2,611.46 Ha), and ponds (1,781.85 Ha).
The alignment of land use with the RTRW obtained is
divided into 3 (three), namely aligned, transitional, and not
aligned with the area of 5,705.42 Ha, 605.86 Ha, and
2,821.58 Ha, respectively.
Introduction
Pekalongan Regency is a combination of flat areas in the north and
highlands/mountains in the south. The altitude of the area on the north coast ranges from
0-2 meters above sea level, with a beach length of about ±10.5 Km. The relatively flat
slope of the slope results in frequent inundation due to flash floods and floods due to high
rainfall during the rainy season and poor drainage (Yuwono et al., 2024). The problem of
flash flood disasters in Pekalongan Regency began with spatial (spatial) problems. The
change in the use of pond land, mangroves, rice fields and settlements that dominate on
the coast is not balanced by rehabilitation by planting mangroves around the coast and
riverside as a natural wave barrier so that seawater easily enters through river estuaries
whose mangroves have been eroded as a result of abrasion (Setyaningrum, Yuniartik,
Dewi, & Nugrahani, 2019).
Land use is closely related to human activities and land resources (Perkasa,
Istiqomah, & Aisiyah, 2022). Some other opinions about land use include: according to
(Adysahwan, Syafri, & Tato, 2022), land use is the result of any form of human
intervention on land on the earth's surface that is dynamic and functions to meet the needs

of life, both material and spiritual; According to (Baja, 2012), land use is related to human
activities that are directly related to land where the use and utilization of land, existing
resources, and causes impacts on land. In addition, according to (Katayane, Puturuhu, &
Botandri, 2024), land use needs to be directed according to its function to avoid negative
development impacts. According to (Matitaputy, Retraubun, Selanno, Papilaya, &
Puturuhu, 2024), the increase in the population increased the need for land faced with a
relatively fixed land area. Therefore, population growth greatly affects land use and
changes in its use.
According to (Zulkaidi, 1999), changes in land use from planned designations in an
area are usually caused by a discrepancy between the considerations underlying the plan
direction and the considerations of market players. The use of land by every development
activity must be in line with the principles of sustainable development, namely economic,
social, cultural, and environmental development. The development that takes place
cannot be avoided due to the excessive use of natural resources (Lahamendu, 2015).
Space utilization is a series of development programs that utilize space based on a
period that has been determined in the regional spatial plan. Space use can function to
support the sustainable development process with wise land use, namely land use for
protection and cultivation functions.
The Regional Spatial Plan (RTRW) is a binding planning document for all
development actors. Spatial planning is a process to determine the spatial structure and
spatial pattern which includes the preparation and determination of spatial plans (Law
No. 26/2007). According to (Simatupang, Rustiadi, & Situmorang, 2011), spatial
planning is a vision of the future spatial configuration form that describes a systematic
form of physical, social, and economic aspects to support and direct space to increase
productivity to meet human needs sustainably. The purpose of regional planning is to
create an efficient, comfortable, and sustainable life. The determination of the chosen
planning location must provide the maximum efficiency and harmony, from various
conflicts of interest. Good spatial planning should be able to help reduce the impact of a
natural disaster, both in terms of planning, utilization, and control of regional spatial
planning, especially areas located in natural disaster-prone areas, so that consistency
between spatial planning and space utilization is the main requirement for the realization
of harmony and harmony between protected areas and cultivation areas (Anggraini &
Muta’ali, 2013).
The purpose of this study is the identification of land use in 2023 in the Pekalongan
Regency and the identification of land use alignment with the Pekalongan Regency
RTRW.

Results and Discussion
Land Use of Pekalongan Regency
Land use in Indonesia is generally the result of a long process of constant
interaction, balance, and dynamic conditions between the activities of the population on
the land and the limitations in the living environment. Based on the results of image
interpretation, land use in 2023 in Pekalongan Regency consists of 11 (eleven) types of
land use, namely industry, roads, sand, settlements, rice fields, rivers, ponds, vacant land,
mixed crops, embankments, and moors. The land use with the largest area is rice fields
with an area of 3,223.34 hectares or equivalent to 35.29% of the study area. More
specifically, land use in Pekalongan Regency can be seen in Table 2 and Figure 2 below.

Based on the figure above, it can be seen that the northern part of Pekalongan
Regency is dominated by the use of pond land with an area of 1,781.85 Ha (19.51%).
This is by its location adjacent to the beach/coast. Furthermore, in other parts, it is
dominated by the use of rice fields and settlements with an area of 3,223.34 Ha (35.29%)
and 2,611.46 Ha (28.59%), respectively. The settlements with the largest area are in Tirto
and Wiradesa Districts. This is directly proportional to the number of people contained in
the Pekalongan Regency in the 2023 figures.
Alignment of Land Use to RTRW Pekalongan Regency
Regional Spatial Planning is a form of intervention that is carried out so that human
interaction with the environment can run harmoniously, harmoniously, and balanced.
This aims to achieve human welfare.
The evaluation of land use alignment was carried out by overlaying the 2023 land
use map with the spatial pattern map of the Pekalongan Regency RTRW in 2020-2040
using ArcMap 10.8 software. The output of this process is the alignment map and
alignment matrix obtained by using the PivotTable function in Microsoft Excel.
The alignment of land use for the RTRW is divided into 3 (three), namely aligned,
transitional, and inconsistent. Aligned means that land use is by spatial patterns, transition
means that land use is still possible to return by spatial patterns and non-aligned means

that land use is not by spatial patterns. The alignment matrix can be seen in Table 3, while
the extent of the alignment of the analysis results can be seen in Table 4.

The results of the analysis show that an area of 2,821.58 Ha (30.89%) of land use
in 2023 is not in line with the Pekalongan Regency RTRW. The largest discrepancy
occurred in the industrial allocation area of 1,013.18 Ha. Meanwhile, the largest
alignment occurred in the allocation of food crop areas covering an area of 1,646.74
hectares and urban settlement areas covering an area of 1,522.92 hectares. The extent of
this alignment in detail can be seen in the matrix of land use deviation for the Pekalongan
Regency RTRW presented in Appendix 1. Meanwhile, spatially the alignment map can
be seen in Figure 3.
The area with the harmonized category shows that it is still much wider than the
transition or inconsistent. However, this still needs to be considered so as not to cause an
imbalance in the use of resources in the future.
The high number of land use inconsistencies shows that the implementation of land
use has not entirely referred to the RTRW. This is due to the lack of public knowledge
about the existence and function of RTRW due to limited land allocation direction from
the local government, namely, direction is carried out only to individuals and/or legal
entities who apply for location permits or land rights, while the community, in general,
does not. Some of the things that can be done to overcome this problem include
socialization to the general public regarding the existence of RTRW, increasing briefings
to individuals and/or legal entities who apply for location permits or land rights, and the
application of sanctions to every perpetrator of land use violations. According to
(Djakapermana, Sitorus, Marimin, & Rustiadi, 2005), the use of space by the spatial plan
and orderly in its control can realize community welfare and sustainable environmental
protection.

Conclusion
Land use in Pekalongan Regency in 2023 consists of 11 types of land use, including
industry, roads, sand, settlements, rice fields, rivers, ponds, vacant land, mixed crops,
embankments, and moorlands. The largest land use is rice fields covering an area of
3,223.34 Ha (35.29%), settlements covering an area of 2611.46 Ha (28.59%), and ponds
of 1781.85 Ha (19.51%). As much as 62.47% of the existing land use is in line with the
Pekalongan Regency RTRW for 2020-2040. Meanwhile, 6.63% transitioned and 30.89%
were out of alignment. Although the category of alignment is much broader than
transition and is not aligned. However, this still needs to be considered so as not to cause
an even greater imbalance in the use of resources in the future.
