Jalur pedestrian adalah salah satu elemen penting pada perkotaan yang mendukung mobilitas pergerakan penduduk dan hal yang tidak bisa dipisahkan dari pengguna jalan terutama pejalan kaki. Jalur pedestrian dalam konteks perkotaan biasanya dimaksudkan sebagai ruang khusus untuk pejalan kaki yang berfungsi sebagai sarana pencapaian yang dapat melindungi pejalan kaki dari bahaya yang datang dari kendaraan bermotor (Iswanto, 2006). Aksesibilitas pejalan kaki sangat ditentukan oleh kondisi pedestrian. Pedestrian harus memenuhi kriteria fisiknya dari segi sarana maupun prasarana bagi pejalan kaki. Kondisi fisik dari pedestrian juga sangat menentukan kualitas pedestrian. Untuk wilayah Kota Banda Aceh, Peunayong merupakan salah satu kawasan sentra bisnis, pusat perdagangan dan jasa serta kawasan heritage sebagaimana ditetapkan dalam RTRW Kota Banda Aceh tahun 2009-2029. Sebagai sentra bisnis dan pusat perdagangan, aktivitas yang terjadi di kawasan ini sangat beragam dengan intensitas tinggi.
The formation of traditional architecture cannot be separated from the local wisdom of the community which is very friendly to environment. In this regard, the notion of ‘locality’ (such as local material, technology and culture) and ‘climate’ are used as a guide to the construction of buildings. The traditional Aceh house, the so-called Acehnese house (rumoh Aceh), that referred to as a type of stilted house is earthquake resistant. The house was also designed to anticipate flood and ocean tide and could provide comfort to the dwellers and be friendly to the local environment. The existence of Acehnese houses, however, has been extinguished. Houses owners prefer to demolish or sell the houses and to reconstruct new buildings with different styles. This study, thus, aims to explore the development of traditional architectural concept that suit to present context. It assesses three representative traditional houses found in Lambenot village. In order to accomplish the study, primary data collection was carried out through field observation, documentation and interviews with several informants including house owners. In additions, literature review is needed to support primary data. In doing this study, the paper shows the form of conservation efforts carried out by the Lambenot village community in order to maintain their collective memory of life journey. The benefit of this study is to give alternative toward preservation effort on how Acehnese houses can be used as an adaptive housing model for contemporary needs both architectural and structural aspects.
Land use and cover (LUC) changes are one of the main factors in global environmental change. It directly affects the welfare of society through changes in environmental conditions, such as land degradation and ecosystem services value (ESV). These ecosystem services have a large impact on quality of life in urban areas in the highlands, such as the region of Takengon, and must be addressed in land use planning. The purpose of this study is to identify the impact of LUC on ESV in 2009 and 2014.Both LUC maps divided into four categories, namely built-up area, water body, forest, and non built-up area, using the ArcGIS®10.1, with a supervised classification. Furthermore, an assessment of several environmental service variables was carried out, namely gas regulation, water supply, waste treatment, food production, raw material, and recreation. The classification results show that the LUC2009 and LUC 2014 were dominated by forests, with 10,064 ha of forest in 2009 and 8,959 ha of forest in 2014. The decrease in forest area from 2009 to 2014 also reduced the ESV by 12.33%. The government needs to consider landscape conservation and sustainable urban development planning.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
