Analysis of Land Assimilative Capacity and Carrying Capacity as an Impact of Piyungan Industrial Area Development

The Piyungan Industrial Area development is projected to absorb a significant workforce by 2035. This development will increase the demand for official housing, consequently impacting the land's carrying capacity and assimilative capacity in Piyungan District, Bantul Regency, Yogyakarta. Consequently, an examination is required to ascertain the current state of the carrying and assimilation capacity. The methodology applied is a quantitative descriptive method combined with a geographical perspective on the planet based on Geographic Information Systems (GIS). Research findings indicate that the area suitable for development, based on land carrying capacity, is 1754.43 hectares. Furthermore, the land's assimilative capacity remains in surplus, with a remaining area of 1170 hectares after accounting for the demand for official housing.
