Abstract
Informal settlements or slums have become an integral condition in an urban area. Economic growth in the city attracted rural people to migrate to the city. There are more than 50% of the world population living in the urban area since 2007. Indonesia experienced the same trend, with 21.8% of the population are still living in the slum area. Actions have been made by the government to identify area, which is indicated as a slum area for further rejuvenating and improvements. This paper presents the spatial analysis on the infrastructure parameters and indicators which defined the slum category of Pipa Reja Village. The indicators and parameters which defined the slum category are set in the Minister of PUPR Regulation No. 2 of 2016. This study used secondary data from KOTAKU programme on baseline data of the slum parameters. The statistical analysis and geospatial analysis were conducted to evaluate the contribution of each indicator to the local slum value. The result was compared with the score value used in the Minister of PUPR Regulation No. 14 of 2018. It is found that condition of the building, condition of drainage system, waste management system, and fire protection conditions were driven the severity condition of the slum in Pipa Reja Village. There was a slightly different category of slum determined by using the percentage value approach and the scoring value approaches. Furthermore, the geospatial analysis using geographical information system can give better insight into distinguishing the critical indicators for further targeting action. � 2020 Alpha Publishers.
