Abstract
Land-use changes essentially are a side-effect of a growth of a city, which is commonly caused by urban developments. The spreading of urban developments on undeveloped land near a city (Urban Sprawl) may lead to lack of urban planning, lack of proper laws that regulate urban planning, and many other issues. In order to mitigate urban sprawl, the current study aims to determine the pattern of Bandung City growth, based on its urban developments, that may have caused urban sprawl. The usage of time series based spatial data in urban development analysis is typically used as the backbone of the study, therefore a 33 year dataset (1985-2018) is used to determine the pattern. Mean Spatial method has been used to evaluate the dataset in Bandung City and districts around the city, which resulted in a fairly consistent pattern of movement of the city growth, directing to the south-west part of the city. Another analysis conducted with the same method, but used without the districts around Bandung City, resulted in a fairly opposite direction, to the eastern part of the city. The study indicated that over the years, the urban sprawl mainly took effect to the west of Bandung City, towards Cimahi City, and south of Bandung City, mainly to Bojongsoang and Baleendah District. On the other hand, the study also indicated the growth of Bandung City within its own area, is in fact heading towards eastern part of the city.
