Abstract Land use change in Kendal District, Indonesia, has become a crucial issue in spatial management. The mismatch between land use and spatial planning is one of the problems that often occurs. Limited land and rapid population growth have driven significant changes in land use, especially in the industrial sector, so an evaluation is needed by comparing actual land use in the area with the applicable Spatial Plan. This research aims to analyze land use change between 2015 and 2020 in Kendal District. Based on quantitative approaches and descriptive analysis, secondary data and interpretation of remote sensing imagery are used to understand land change. The results show that there were significant changes in spatial planning and land use in 2015 and 2020, so these results can make an important contribution to the government in regional planning and sustainable urban development. Changes in land use in Kendal Regency have not been in accordance with the Spatial Pattern Plan Map of the Kendal area. This is because changes will continue to occur, so changes in land use will also continue to change. It is not surprising that changes have not occurred significantly or in accordance with the planned pattern.
