PEMETAAN PERUBAHAN PENGGUNAAN LAHAN DESA SIRNAJATI TAHUN 2014-2024 MENGGUNAKAN PENDEKATAN SIG

Sirnajati Village experienced significant land use change from 2014 to 2024. The main problem faced is the conversion of agricultural land into settlements and the increasing area of vacant land that has not been optimally utilized. These changes can have an impact on agriculture, food security, and environmental balance. In addition, the low development of Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises in this village is a challenge in improving community welfare. The method used in this research is the diffusion of science and technology, which is a method that produces products for consumers in this case in the form of making maps of land use change through the use of Geographic Information Systems to map and analyze land changes. Data processing was carried out using remote sensing imagery and digital mapping techniques to identify patterns of land use change and potential utilization of vacant land. The results of this activity indicate that the area of paddy fields has decreased, while residential land has increased although not significantly. The increase in vacant land provides an opportunity for village governments to optimize its use as productive land, green open spaces, or centers for village economic development. The conclusion of this research is the need for better spatial management to mitigate the negative impacts of land change. With Geographic Information System-based mapping, village development planning can be more effective and sustainable, ensuring a balance between development, food security and environmental sustainability
