Geomorphological Mapping for Land Suitability Evaluation

Geomorphology affects the potential of land. The geomorphological condition an area has implications for physical characteristics, including: 1) type; 2) material; and 3) processes formed upon it. Understanding land capability allows evaluation suitability. Classification suitability is carried out by combining results identification with requirements plant growth or existing use. Evaluation can be done using survey method. This study aimed to assess in Sumbersuko Village Wagir District, Malang Regency. Land was evaluated matching characteristics class. used primary data taken from regional morphology survey. Secondary included: digital elevation model data; geological maps; maps soil types; 4) Sentinel-2A images. field were then compiled a geographic information system into 2D 3D modeling. GIS analysis showed that six landform units, namely M1V1, M1V2, H2V2, U2V2, P2V2, M3V3. Analysis units row gave following results: forest (highly suitable/S1); industry (suitable/S2); plantation/agrotourism (moderately suitable /S3); agriculture (not suitable/N); 5) residential (less suitable/S3) S4); 6) suitable/S1).
