LAND USE MODEL FOR BUILDING BASED ON CARRYING CAI)ACITY OF CITY LAND (CASE STUDY: PALU CITY)

This study aims to model the growth trend of the extent of land usefor building based on the carrying capacity of land in Palu city which is known as Bay City in accordance with the prediction of time. Methods of research were carried out with the approach of spatial and quantitative methods. The results show that Palu city as Bay City has the characteristics of urban land that is quite specific to the protected area. There is still available land for building i.e.: ± 13.151,13ha (34.74%) with a growth rate of land usefor building in the future 2.72% per year, area of cultivation will be fully filled in the year 2056 with the capacity of 1.052.730 people. Carrying capacity of land in Palu city until the year 2056 has not exceeded the threshold, either by the land consumption per capita or by the level density
