Abstract

The long term goal of this research is to monitor the availability of groundwater in the next few decades. The specific aim of this study was to determine land use change impact on the groundwater level in Yogyakarta suburban areas in the last 20 years. This study used primary and secondary data obtained from land use map, groundwater depth data, rainfall data and temperature data. The data were analyzed using both qualitative and quantitative method. Changes in land use based on different land use map in decades. The changes of land use in decades were analyzed based on the maps. The changes of land use were analyzed to determine the land which optimally used as the settlement. In order to determine groundwater level, the temperature and rainfall data was used. The results of this study are expected to (1) illustrate the environmental impact on the community in suburban area; (2) prevent the water crisis.
