ANALISIS SPASIAL GUNA MENDUKUNG IDENTIFIKASI AWAL POTENSI NILAI KONSERVASI TINGGI (NKT) DI PT. BUMI PRATAMA KHATULISTIWA KECAMATAN SUNGAI AMBAWANG KALIMANTAN BARAT
Abstract: Forest deforestation
caused loss of habitat for endangered species. Changes in forest into oil palm
plantation by PT Bumi Pratama Khatulistiwa (BPK) resulted in many conflicts
with the community and make the loss of conservation value. Studies on areas that
have a high conservation value necessary to maintain the stability of the
clearing of forests to the environment is sustainable. Geographic information
system technology (GIS) field of conservation is able to provide spatial
information, determine the species habitat, analysis to find protected areas
and mapping out areas of biodiversity.
The purpose of this study to determine the ability of GIS technology in
providing information for the early identification of areas with high
conservation value and determine which area has high conservation value (HCV)
in the concession area of PT BPK and surrounding villages. Research was
conducted for two months. The research
results show that GIS has enormous benefits in mapping out areas of high
conservation value. Work on a large scale can be easily done and also save
time, effort and cost. Location HCV 1 overlapping with the HCV 3 and 4 which
are in the river, riparian and peat swamp forests. Location NKT 2 was not
found, because most of the research area is an open area, there is no broad
landscape. Location HCV 5 was not found, because most people in the study area
does not depend anymore with natural forests.
Oil palm plantations PT BPK give people easy access to the city, to buy
daily necessities. Location HCV 6 is located within the concession area of PT
BPK namely padagi sites. The site was used by the Dayak community to worship
ancestors and offer prayers at tuah jubata (god almighty one).
Keywords: Geographic
Information System (GIS), High Conservation Value (HCV), PT BPK.
