Abstract
Jakarta Metropolitan Area expands outside of DKI Jakarta (Daerah Khusus Ibukota Jakarta: Special Capital Region of Jakarta) and includes Bogor and Bekasi in West Java Province and Tangerang in Banten Province. Land use/cover pattern and change analysis indicated that built up area in Jakarta expanded in all directions since 1989. The east–west development strategy, which was designed to prevent the deterioration of the aquifer environment, has not appeared to be thoroughly implemented. This may have caused, in part, escalation of land subsidence due to excessive groundwater pumping for urban water demand. Therefore, proper urban and land use planning at watershed or metropolitan scale is required for the sustainable development of Jakarta.
