Spatial Analysis and WebGIS Visualization of Building Massing in the Prapatan Coastal Area: A Case Study for Waterfront City Development in Balikpapan
Abstract:
The Prapatan coastal area, located along Jalan Jenderal Sudirman in Kelurahan Prapatan, Balikpapan City, is an area of significant urban and environmental potential, particularly in the context of waterfront city development. This area is strategically positioned as an environmental service centre within the city’s broader spatial structure plan, which identifies it as a key region for coastal development. Given the growing pressures on Prapatan Beach, particularly in light of the anticipated urban congestion due to the city’s role as a buffer for Indonesia’s new capital (IKN), there is a need for comprehensive planning to manage urban expansion and preserve the coastal ecosystem. This study employs a combined approach, integrating the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) and Geographic Information System (GIS) analysis, to assess land suitability for waterfront development. The results of this analysis are then visualized through a WebGIS platform, enabling dynamic mapping of the area's environmental and spatial characteristics. The spatial analysis provides a framework for informed decision-making, highlighting areas with the greatest potential for sustainable development while addressing the challenges posed by urbanisation, environmental preservation, and infrastructure development. Ultimately, the research aims to contribute to the strategic planning of the coastal area, ensuring alignment with regional spatial policies and fostering the sustainable development of Balikpapan as a model waterfront city. The proposed spatial development concepts offer insights for future planning processes, assisting in the identification of potential risks and opportunities.1. Introduction
Regional development is based on a process that involves various strategic efforts in advancing an area with the aim of improving the quality of life index of the local community. It includes various aspects, such as infrastructure development, economic development, accessibility improvement, environmental preservation, community empowerment, and public service provision. Regional development has an important role because it can provide great benefits to local communities, including improving quality of life, increasing income, creating jobs, helping to increase investment and the local economy, and increasing accessibility or connectivity between regions [1].
Strategies in regional development planning will determine the spatial structure of the region. Based on Indonesian Law No. 26 of 2007 concerning spatial planning, it is explained that the region is a space that becomes a geographical unit and all elements related to the boundaries and systems that have been determined based on administrative and / or functional aspects. The region itself is divided into five types, and one of them is the coastal area. Coastal areas have specific characteristics compared to other areas because they are transitional places for land and marine ecosystems and are mutually influenced by changes in land and sea [2]. Development by utilizing coastal resources without paying attention to ecological aspects will only damage the function of the coastal ecosystem. Not to mention that it is influenced by the population growth that crowds the coastal area, which will save complex problems if no development direction is carried out because the community will be in direct contact with the coastal and marine ecosystems, which will affect the quality of the coastal area. Therefore, a water-oriented development concept is needed, namely the concept of developing coastal areas with waterfront cities.
One of the cities that has a plan on waterfront city development is Balikpapan City. Based on Balikpapan City's RTRW and RTBL documents, the city has a plan to realize the concept of a waterfront city through the development of coastal roads and coastal reclamation projects. The city has various potential coastal areas, such as beautiful beaches, beachfront resorts, shopping centers, entertainment venues, and cultural and historical diversity. Some of the potential that can be developed along this coastal area, such as developing an artificial island with a water theme park and a large river delta as a clubhouse, orientation of residential buildings and views of the area on the edge towards the sea, provision of spaces and activities that can be utilized for the potential and attractiveness of the ocean, such as seafood culinary tours or tourist boat docks, and can be developed as a downtown where this area can be equipped with new functions that can support activities such as shopping malls, hotels, modern retail, apartments, and civic centers [3]. One area of the city that has an attraction is the waterfront area along Jalan Jenderal Sudirman, which is located in Kelurahan Prapatan. Based on the city's spatial structure plan, Kelurahan Prapatan is included as a city service center area supported by the location of the area in the urban center so that it physically supports this city to develop the concept of a waterfront city. In addition, Kelurahan Prapatan (Sub BWP IV.D) is one of the areas planned for the coastal road development program and coastal reclamation. The development is carried out due to the fear of the city's coastal conditions, especially on the edge of Prapatan Beach, which will be increasingly congested so that alternative solutions should be realized, especially since Balikpapan City will become a buffer city for the Ibu Kota Nusantara (IKN).
Therefore, this research will map as well as visualize the condition of environment-based land capability for the development of the waterfront city area in Balikpapan City's Prapatan Beachfront area along with the building mass layout through the area typology approach. The result of this research is the mapping of potential development zones of the area in terms of land capability parameters such as land elevation, land slope, surface geology, rock geology, land cover, rainfall, water service coverage, erosion rate, and land resistance to natural disasters. Familiar with the land use conditions, including building massing and community activities in the study area, is also needed to determine the waterfront city concept that is suitable to be applied based on existing conditions. The existing conditions are obtained from analyzing population density, building density, road network density, centrality index, connectivity index, and entropy index. Based on the study results of all these aspects, the results of waterfront city zoning mapping in Balikpapan City's waterfront area are expected to help optimize spatial planning and identify potential areas for future development, whether commercial, residential, or recreational, in accordance with the RTRW policy direction as a form of support in solving urban problems.
This research also developed information on the concept of regional development in the form of digital mapping visualization. It is expected that the development of digital map-based information can increase user understanding because it is easier to monitor the area or spatial management so that it is expected to help in making better decisions and recognizing potential problems. Digital map presentation is the most important thing where people can explore the contents of a database system in order to identify an exclusive requirement [4].
2. Methodology
The methods used in the processing in this research consist of GIS and AHP methods. GIS technique is a technology that utilizes geographic or spatial data to collect, organize, analyze, manage, and present information visually and graphically. GIS allows users to understand the relationship between various geographic phenomena through interactive digital representations and plays an important role in making better decisions in various fields, such as spatial planning, surface mapping, or monitoring predictions or natural disaster events. In concept, GIS has three main elements consisting of a system, information, and geography [5]. The AHP technique is a method that can help find problem solutions by conducting pairwise comparisons between factors. AHP is often chosen in problem solving because of its various advantages. First, AHP has a hierarchical structure that allows decomposing the problem to the most detailed sub-criteria, making the problem more structured and systematic. Second, AHP considers validity up to the tolerance limit of inconsistency in the decision-making process. Third, AHP takes into account the robustness of results through sensitivity analysis, allowing evaluation of how small changes in inputs can affect the final outcome [6].
Based on Figure 1, this research is divided into three data processing flows, namely making basic maps, analyzing development classifications based on land capabilities, analyzing regional typologies, and mapping the direction of waterfront city-based area development. Pleiades satellite data was used to create a base map with an RDTR mapping approach in the Prapatan coastal area, Balikpapan City. The method used is on-screen digitization. Land capability parameter data consists of topography, morphology, elevation, soil type, watershed hydrology, rainfall intensity, land use, and natural disaster maps. Based on the parameter data, the land ability unit will be identified to obtain the results of the analysis of the land capability map. The method used in this processing is the AHP method to determine the weight value of each land ability unit. The typological analysis of Prapatan Subdistrict was carried out to identify the characteristics of the area, which was reviewed through several indicators such as population nests. The results of the overall study are used as a consideration in determining the direction of waterfront city-based area development.
The scope of the research area is the coastal area of Prapatan Subdistrict, Balikpapan City, East Kalimantan Province, and more precisely in part of the corridor of Jenderal Sudirman Street. Prapatan Subdistrict is one of five subdistricts in the Balikpapan Kota District. This sub-district has geographical conditions that are directly adjacent to the beach [7].
Based on Figure 2, the astronomical location of Prapatan Subdistrict is at 116.8185 East Longitude (BT) and -1.2724 South Latitude (LS) with an area of 442.47 ha. This sub-district consists of 38 RTs. The number of residents in Prapatan Subdistrict in 2020 amounted to 11,677 people and consisted of 4,118 families. The male population is 5,899 people, and the female population is 5,778 people [8]. There are several classifications of land in coastal areas that are included in the case study area, such as industrial areas, marine and historical tourism, sports, open spaces, and housing. Around the coastal waters there is a small island called Bawui Malawai Island (Pig Island), which is in the form of a rock mound.
At this stage, observations were made on the existing environmental conditions of the coastal area of Prapatan, Balikpapan City. Discussions with several related parties are needed to find out the picture of environmental phenomena that occur in the area. The following data used in this study are as follows:
1. Balikpapan City RTRW data for 2012-2032. The data is based on aerial photo data from the Balikpapan City Bapeda Agency.
2. Tetrarectified Pleiades High-Resolution Satellite Images (CSRT) according to the study area from the LAPAN Agency.
3. Balikpapan City Basic Building Coefficient policy data.
4. Parameter data to analyze the direction of regional development based on land capabilities and land allocation criteria for tourism support facilities are available in Table 1.

The basic data used as a basemap is a very high-resolution satellite imagery of Pleiades in the study area of Prapatan Subdistrict, Balikpapan City. The method used in this processing is the digitization on-screen method, which refers to the technical guidelines of Perka BIG No. 16 of 2014 concerning the creation of a basic map of spatial details using the ArcGIS spatial application. Figure 3 displays the basic mapping process in the Prapatan Subdistrict.
The method used in determining the weighting value of the regional development zone is the AHP method. This method uses the opinions of 4 expert respondents from the Bappeda Agency and the Balikpapan City Public Works Office. Meanwhile, the scores obtained use references from several previous relevant studies.
The basic procedures carried out using the AHP method are [9]:
1. Hierarchical Arrangement
The preparation of the hierarchy is carried out to find the structure of a system and its relationships between components and their influence on a system. This aims to describe the influencing elements of the system and obtain identified decision alternatives [9].
2. Determining Priorities
Each criterion or alternative that has been obtained needs to be analyzed in a pairwise comparison matrix. This matrix compares criteria with each other in pairs so that element-level values will be obtained through expert opinions converted into quantitative data [10].
3. Consistency Testing
The consistency test was carried out to get the weight value obtained from the calculation results to see whether it was consistent or not. The consistency test is a weight value test by calculating deviations from the consistency of the value, and the deviation is called the consistency index (CI) [9].
where,
$\lambda_{\max }$: Maximum eigen value;
$n$: Matrix size.
In the concept of consistency test, the value of CI is compared with the random index (RI) for each $n$ objects [11]. In the concept of consistency test, the CI value is compared with the random index (RI) for every $n$ objects. $n$ objects are the number of parameters used in the research. Number of parameters ($n$) 1 has an RI value of 0.00. Number of parameters ($n$) 2 has an RI value of 0.00. Number of parameters ($n$) 3 has an RI value of 0.58. Number of parameters ($n$) 4 has an RI value of 0.90. Number of parameters ($n$) 5 has an RI value of 1.12. Number of parameters ($n$) 6 has an RI value of 1.24. Number of parameters ($n$) 7 has an RI value of 1.32.
The comparison matrix will be acceptable if the consistency ratio (CR) value $\leq$ 0.1. This value illustrates that the expert's answer is consistent so that the solution obtained can be optimal. CR is the result of a comparison between CI and RI [12]. The following is the calculation to obtain the CR ratio.
where,
$CI$: Consistency index;
$RI$: Random index.
After weighting and processing AHP, the weight value and score of each land capability parameter can be obtained in Table 2.
Weight of Criteria | Criteria | Priority Criteria |
0.235 | Morphological land capability unit | 1 |
0.078 | Unit of land capability ease of working | 6 |
0.152 | Land capability unit slope stability | 3 |
0.046 | Unit of land capability foundation stability | 7 |
0.228 | Unit of land capability water availability | 2 |
0.116 | Unit of land capability for drainage | 4 |
0.038 | Unit of land capability to erosion
| 8 |
0.109 | Unit of land capability to natural disasters | 5 |
1.000 | Total Weight |
The weighting results in Table 2 show that the highest priority land capability unit is morphology with a weight value of 0.235, and the lowest priority is erosion with a weight value of 0.038. The result of the geometric weighting mean has a ratio consistency value of < 0.01, which is 0.040, which means that the CR value meets the criteria. This weight value will be used as a weighting reference in the process of determining the classification of regional development.
Land capability is the assessment of land according to its components systematically and its grouping into several classifications based on characteristics that are potential and obstacles in its sustainable use. The classification of land capacity is influenced by land characteristics in determining land quality so that it can be used in determining appropriate land allocations for both agriculture and non-agriculture [13].
Based on the Regulation of the Minister of Public Works No.20/PRT/M/2007 concerning technical guidelines for the analysis of physical and environmental, economic, and socio-cultural aspects in the preparation of spatial plans, to assessing regional capabilities can be done by analyzing land capacity units. The analysis of the land capability unit is divided into 8 aspects: morphological land capability unit, unit of land capability ease of working, land capability unit slope stability, unit of land capability foundation stability, unit of land capability water availability, unit of land capability for drainage, unit of land capability to erosion and unit of land capability to natural disasters [14].
In general, in the analysis of each unit of land capacity, scoring and weighting are carried out in accordance with the previous research score and the results of the weight from AHP for each parameter and multiplication between the score value and weight. The multiplication results are summed against all parameters of each aspect of the land capability unit. This operation uses an overlay technique on vector data. Table 3 shows the parameter data used for the analysis of land capacity along with score and weight values.

The classification of regional development zones is carried out to obtain final recommendations on land suitability for regional development. In the analysis of the development zone, the ability of the land that has been cultivated previously is used. The method used to determine the classification of this land is the overlay technique with intersect. All total values of each land capability unit will be summed up and classified into regional development zones from those that have the potential to be developed to those that are less likely to be developed. The zoning in the analysis of land capacity is divided into five classes to find out the areas that have the highest to lowest development potential presented in the following Table 4 [15].
Land Classification | Description | Referral |
Zone A | Very low development capabilities | Directions to become protected areas due to low land capability levels. |
Zone B | Low development capabilities | |
Zone C | Medium development capabilities | Instructions to be a buffer area. |
Zone D | High development capabilities | The directive becomes a development area zone because it has a high level of land capability. |
Zone E | Highly developed capabilities |
The analysis of land use and activities in the Prapatan Subdistrict uses spatial patterns from several data sources, namely population density, building density, road network density, centrality index, connectivity index, and entropy index.
1. Population density
Population density is a measure of the ratio of the number of people to the area [16].
2. Building density
Building density analysis is one of the indications of a compact city. The higher the building density, the more characteristic the service center [17].
3. Road network density
The analysis of road network density is the ratio between road length and area [18].
4. Centrality index
The centrality index is an analysis of service functions spread across the study area in relation to various population activities to take advantage of these facilities [19]. This analysis uses data input in the form of the number of each type of facility which is then weighted into a function index.
5. Connectivity index
Beta index analysis serves to measure the level of road network connectivity in an area. The higher the Beta value, the greater the connectivity value in an area [20]. The environmental carrying capacity in encouraging the success of pedestrian mobility in an area is measured through the walkability index. One of the factors is by using the land use entropy index analysis. The higher the entropy value, the easier it is for pedestrians to access destinations without having to move far from the area [21].
6. Entropy index
The entropy index is a tool used to measure the level of land use diversity by considering the relative percentages of two or more types of land use in an area. The value of the entropy index shows how balanced land use is in an area compared to other land uses in the same area. Areas that have a uniform proportion of land use will reach the maximum value on the entropy index. This index only measures the presence or absence of land use variation, not the type or intensity of the mixture. The value ranges from 0 until 1 [22].
The direction of building mass planning in the Prapatan Subdistrict refers to the building mass policy of the Regional Spatial Plan (RTRW) of Balikpapan City. The mass system used is the Basic Building Coefficient , the Building Floor Coefficient, and the maximum height of the building.
Digital maps are the presentation of geographical phenomena that are stored and analyzed by digital computers. Every element present on a digital map will be stored as a component of geometry, such as coordinates. Objects in the form of locations with point symbolization will be stored as a coordinate, while objects in the form of areas or lines will be stored as a set of coordinate points. Digital maps have an advantage when compared to analog maps, namely they have not much map storage space. Digital maps can also be presented in a more interactive format with web-based [23]. Figure 4 is the ArcGIS Web App Builder platform used to design the WebGIS [24].
Web-based digital mapping was created using ESRI's ArcGIS Online platform. This digital map was created with the intention to help provide visualization of research results in the form of a digital map so that it is more informative to present a large number of mapping forms along with attributive data at the same time.
A 3D model is a visual representation of an object from a three-dimensional point of view. There are 3 axes of coordinates in a three-dimensional model, namely the x, y, and z axes. This makes three-dimensional models have space and volume, in contrast to 2D models that only have length and width [25].
Nowadays, 3D urban modeling focuses more on the geometric representation of buildings, although non-building objects also play an important role in the process of urban development. Thematic non-building objects, such as tunnels, bridges, vegetation, urban furnishings, and water bodies, contribute to the modeling. In particular, 3D vegetation models are needed as visualization and analysis tools in various fields, as well as a basis for urban design simulations, such as urban greening, air quality conservation, and flood mitigation [26].
The 3D model was created using CityEngine software. The area that will be modeled is the Prapatan Subdistrict. The object of three-dimensional modeling consists of buildings and roads.
3. Results and Discussion
This base map contains all elements visible on the surface of satellite imagery data, which generally includes administrative boundaries of urban subdistricts obtained from Bappeda of Balikpapan City and RT boundaries from the government of Prapatan Urban Subdistrict of Balikpapan City. In addition, other objects are identified, such as road networks, water, and land cover.
Based on Figure 5, the Kelurahan has 38 RTs, with 1 RT being the Pertamina RU V Oil Refinery area of Balikpapan City.

When viewed from the percentage of land, the ability of land to natural disasters in the Prapatan Subdistrict district is still low, so it is very potential for natural disasters, especially landslides.
The results of the classification of area development were obtained from the analysis of all land ability units, namely morphology, ease of work, slope stability, foundation stability, water availability, drainage, erosion, and natural disasters. This classification provides an overview of the suitability of areas that are suitable for development as cultivation areas and protected areas. Figure 14 is the result of the classification of development in the Prapatan Subdistrict.
Based on the results of the development classification shown in Figure 14, Prapatan Subdistrict has 5 classes of areas that are reviewed from their land capabilities, namely class A is a very low development ability class, class B is a low development ability class, class C is a medium development ability class, class D is a high development ability class, and class E is a very high development ability class. Classes A and B are recommended for protected areas because they are areas that have low development capabilities and are designated as non-building areas; class C is a buffer, and classes D and E are areas with great potential to be developed. In Table 13, the following are the results of the development classification percentage.
Development Classification | Area (ha) | Percentage |
Class E | 11.255 | 2.569 |
Class D | 115.140 | 26.286 |
Class C | 139.496 | 31.846 |

Prapatan Subdistrict is a subdistrict located in a coastal area, so it can have the potential to be developed as a waterfront city area. There are several conditions if an area can be developed with the concept of a waterfoil city, namely the location that is planned to be developed is on the edge of a large water area, there are residential areas, trades, ports, and tourist attractions or attractions, it has the main function as a port area, residential, industrial, and tourism/recreation, and development plans are based on water [27]. Construction is carried out in a vertical direction. In Table 18, the followings are the results of identifying the suitability of the implementation of the waterfront city concept in Prapatan Subdistrict, Balikpapan City.
Criteria | Suitability | Description | |
Yes | No | ||
The location that is planned to be developed is on the edge of a large water area. | √ |
| The geographical condition of Prapatan Subdistrict is directly adjacent to the waters on the shore of Balikpapan Bay. |
There are residential, commercial, port, and tourist attractions or attractions. | √ |
| Prapatan Subdistrict has a residential area designation from dense to low-lying residential areas. Low-density residential areas are residential areas for employees of PT. Pertamina RU V Balikpapan. High density of settlements is the residence of local residents. The trade and service area consists of shops and culinary places. This subdistrict also has the city’s main port, namely Semayang Port or industrial pier. In addition, it has the potential for marine tourism, history, and artificial tourism. Based on the results of data collection, this subdistrict has 12 tourist locations and various activities in it. |
It has the main function as a port, residential, industrial, and tourism/recreation area. | √ |
| Based on the Regional Spatial Plan (RTRW), Prapatan Subdistrict is intended for several regional functions, namely urban forest areas, large industries, tourism, transportation, trade and services, defense & security, green open spaces, and coastal borders. |
Water-based development plan | √ |
| Based on the RTRW document, Prapatan Subdistrict is included as an area that is allowed for the development of coastal reclamation. Reviewed from the typology of Prapatan Subdistrict, the typology of this area is the longitudinal (linear) type following the beachfront pattern, and the building pattern follows the road network pattern so that some areas have an orientation towards the waters. In addition, based on a literature study, Prapatan Subdistrict is included as part of the area where coastal reclamation will be carried out and the coastal road development plan will be based on the waterfront area. |
Construction is carried out in a vertical direction. | √ |
| Based on the RTRW document, the high percentage of Basic Building Coefficient (80%) in residential areas is directed vertically with a maximum building height of 25 meters, especially in high-density residential areas such as RTs 21, 22, 23, 26, 27, 29, 30, 31, 32, 37, and 38. The direction of the highest building height is in the tourism zone. Some other areas that are directed to be developed vertically are trade and service areas and industrial areas. |
Based on the results of the identification of the criteria for the potential development of Prapatan Subdistrict towards waterfront city, these criteria have been met both in terms of geographical conditions, regional characteristics, and based on government policies reviewed from the Regional Spatial Plan (RTRW) so that Prapatan Subdistrict has great potential to implement regional development with the waterfront city concept. Waterfront city is an urban environment located on the edge of or adjacent to waters, such as in large port areas in metropolitan cities [28]. The results of the mapping of recommendations for the direction of waterfront city-based development areas are presented in Figure 21 below.
In subgraph (a) of Figure 21, the results of the analysis of the direction of the function of the area are divided into three classifications of designated zones, namely protection zones, buffer zones, and cultivation. The dominating zone in this region is a cultivation area with a land composition of 39.299% or 172.143 ha. Development in cultivation areas can be directed to several regional activities reviewing existing land use, such as residential areas, green open spaces, industry, transportation, commercial, and tourism.
The results of the mapping of the direction of regional development in subgraph (b) of Figure 21 are based on the analysis of the level of land capability and the direction of the designation of the area in Prapatan Subdistrict whose development zone designation refers to the Regional Spatial Plan (RTRW). Zone D and zone E are zones that have high potential to be developed, and according to the designation of the area based on the RTRW, they are directed as urban forest areas, large industries, tourism, ports, trade and services, defense and security, housing, green open space, and coastal areas. Meanwhile, zone C is included as a buffer area that can be directed as a barrier between protected areas and cultivation areas where it is reviewed from the theory that the permitted land use is the development of people's plantation forests, plantations, and agroforestry with very minimal land cultivation. Zones A and B have low land capacity, so they are directed as protected areas. Previously, based on the spatial plan, in zones A and B there were several regional designations such as urban forest areas, most large industries, ports, trade and services, and housing, but after an analysis of the ability of land for the development of this area was included in zoning that had a low ability to be developed, this area was recommended to be included as a protected area. In Table 19, the following zoning recommendations and area designations according to the RTRW in the Prapatan Subdistrict are detailed.
Zone Recommended | Zone (RTRW) | Building Mass Layout Direction | Area (ha) | % | ||
Building Base Coefficient | Building Floor Coefficient | Max Building Height | ||||
Development Zone (172.143 ha) | Urban forest zone | 20% | 0.2 | - | 7.396 | 4.296 |

Based on the results of the study, the area according to the RTRW that has the largest land allocation to be developed is a large industrial area with a percentage of 73.652% and a trade and service area with a percentage of 15.303%.
The results of the study on land use, activities, and directions for area allocation can be obtained so that Prapatan Subdistrict can be planned and developed with the category of mixed-use waterfront city. This can be specified in the following considerations.
1. Prapatan Subdistrict has a very high level of land capability for development in the coastal area with a total land composition of 39.299% or 172.143 ha.
2. This area is included as a City Service Center (PPK) area so that it has various strategic functions that can be developed in supporting social, economic, transportation, tourism, residential, or social and cultural activities.
3. The centrality index in the development zone (cultivation) is high. This can be seen from the large distribution of public facilities and strategic objects such as economic facilities, health, sports, education, worship, transportation, natural tourism, historical tourism, and defense and security. Reviewing this, the centrality index is able to provide an overview of the level of a region in supporting the development of various regional functions.
4. Prapatan Subdistrict has the majority of land use in forest areas and industrial housing, while according to the RTRW map, the most dominant areas are large industrial areas and urban forest areas. Based on the level of land composition, Prapatan Subdistrict can be directed to develop to focus on a residential waterfront or working waterfront. However, if Prapatan Subdistrict is only directed into one category of area, it will have an impact on the lack of social life and community activities as well as dependence on one economic source. Based on the Balikpapan City RTRW document, Prapatan Subdistrict is directed into several regional functions such as commercial, health, and education so that, seeing this aspect, Prapatan Subdistrict can be directed to develop a mixed-use waterfront.
5. Prapatan Village is worthy of being directed to develop a mix-used waterfront as seen from the value of the land use diversity index (entropy) which is classified as having a high entropy index value. This indicates that land use in this area has land heterogeneity that will support the compactness of development and the balance of regional proportions. This type is a mixed use of waterfront areas such as docks, ports, trade and services, and so on [29].
Web-based digital map visualization is used to help present the results of research maps that are loaded into online maps so that they can be accessed by the public. The function of web GIS for urban planning has an important role, such as analyzing spatial distribution and supporting collaboration by various interested parties (government, community, private sector) because of the real-time and flexible nature of web GIS. In addition, web GIS can also be used as a monitoring medium in regional development planning and evaluation.
This WebGIS technology has been widely used in major cities in Indonesia such as Jakarta, Surabaya, Semarang, and other big cities. Many benefits can be obtained in urban planning monitoring and make it easier to identify regional problems without having to go directly to the field. This WebGIS can also make it easier for Prapatan Subdistrict to succeed in developing the concept of a smart city in Balikpapan City. So, it is hoped that the implementation of technology like this in Prapatan Subdistrict can also help efficiency for spatial planning of the area that is planned to be developed as a waterfront city. This can help a region pay attention to the aspect of sustainable development.
This visualization uses the ESRI platform, which combines the Dashboard WebMap feature with ArcGIS StoryMaps. The following is a display of the results of the online digital map that has been published.
Figure 22 below is the result of creating an online digital map consisting of profile information of Prapatan Subdistrict presented in ArcGIS story maps with the integration of online map presentation (dashboard). Story maps contain a profile of Prapatan Subdistrict, which contains a brief description of the subdistrict, physical and geographical conditions, regional potential, and a profile video. The dashboard displays the results of the layers of the research map that can be activated or deactivated on the layer menu. There is a basemap menu to change the basemap of the map you want to display, such as imagery, topography, or satellite. On the right side of the map, there is statistical data on the area of the development zone and the composition of the zone of the area.
The 3D visualization of the model was obtained from the results of the automatic approach in the City Engine application and was only to help visualize the mass of buildings in the Prapatan subdistrict. This modeling is used to help visually represent urban planning from a more real existing condition. The disadvantage of this study is that it has not provided altitude values with good accuracy because it only relies on automatic extraction of altitude from available data. So, it is hoped that for FuOpen Green Spaceer research, it can use a method that has high accuracy in extracting building height data according to the actual value. The followings are the results of the visualization of 3D modeling presented in Figure 23.
The object of three-dimensional modeling consists of buildings and roads. The level of detail of the 3D model created is only up to the Level of Detail (LoD) 1 level, which only displays the shape of the building. Level of Detail (LoD) is very important in creating a 3D City Model because it serves as a work boundary and modeling goal. There are five levels of 3D detail in the Level of Detail (LoD) rule, where each level has a different level of detail. The higher the LoD level, the more detailed and accurate the 3D model will be, but the data acquisition cost will increase [30].
4. Conclusions
The conclusions of the results of this study are as follows.
1. Prapatan Subdistrict has 5 zones of development areas that are reviewed from their land capabilities, namely classes A, B, C, D, and E. Low development potential is in class A, and very high development is in class E. The development classification with the highest land composition is class C, with a percentage of 31.846% or 139.496 ha, and the second highest is class E, with a percentage of 31.520% or 138.070 ha. Meanwhile, the development class with the lowest composition is class A, with a percentage of 2.569% or 11.255 ha.
2. Based on the results of the analysis of land use and activities in Prapatan Subdistrict, it was found that this area has a diverse land use pattern, which can be seen from the value of the diversity index (entropy), which is in the high class. The most dominant land use is forest areas and industrial employee housing. Existing activities consist of social activities in residential areas, production and trade activities and services in commercial areas, and tourism activities in several objects such as beach tourism, history, and sports. The level of mobility activity is supported by a well-conditioned road network, having public transportation for the Trans Balikpapan Bus and sea transportation in the form of piers and city ports.
3. Based on the results of the visualization of the building mass plan, the direction of the lowest building mass is the building class that has a Basic Building Coefficient of 20%, a Building Floor Coefficient of 0.2, and the maximum building height is unknown where the land is an urban forest area. The direction of the highest building mass is Basic Building Coefficient 80%, Building Floor Coefficient 4.0, with a maximum building height of 35 meters, which is in the tourism area.
4. The results of the identification of development potential criteria show that Kelurahan Prapatan has the potential to be developed towards a waterfront city where the requirements have been met both in terms of geographical conditions and regional characteristics and based on government policies reviewed from the Regional Spatial Plan (RTRW). Zone D and zone E are zones that have high potential to be developed, and in accordance with the designation of the area based on the analysis of the RTRW and land use, it is directed as a residential area (industry and general public), industry, tourism, ports, trade and services, defense and security, green open space, and coastal boundaries. While zone C is included as a buffer area that is used as a barrier between protected areas and cultivation areas, it is reviewed from the theory that the allowed land use is the development of community plantation forests, plantations, and agroforests with very minimal land processing that can. Zones A and B have low land capability, so they are directed as protected areas. The results of the study of land use, activities, and direction of area designation can be obtained that Prapatan Subdistrict can be planned and developed with the category of mixed-use waterfront city.
5. This web-based digital map visualization uses an ESRI platform that combines the WebMap Dashboard feature with ArcGIS StoryMaps. In the dashboard view, the layers of the study area map and statistical data taken from the object area value are presented.
5. Research Advice
The suggestions in this study are as follows:
1. Using supporting data for the zoning of the RDTR spatial plan area so that the level of land allocation can be detailed.
2. It is hoped that this research can be continued by reviewing its carrying capacity.
3. The study of building massing directions is recommended to use a land plot map in order to obtain a value of conformity between existing conditions and the direction of government spatial policies.
4. In future research, it can be recommended to design a WebGIS that can provide a more interactive display.
5. In future research it is recommended to visualize in the form of a 3D Model, with detailed height values in order to have a specific picture of the building mass layout in terms of geometry.
