Abstract

Urban development does not only show positive impact for the society welfare in the current generation, but also hides negatives impact that might be felt by later generation. It happens especially if the regional planning does not applied based on the principle of sustainable development. Ngemplak Sub-District is an administrative area located in Sleman Regency, Special Region of Yogyakarta, and a little part of its area is included in the Yogyakarta Urban Area (Kawasan Perkotaan Yogyakarta/ KPY). As a small part of KPY, the urbanization processes in this sub-district has become more intensive. This conditions also emphasized by the location of its sub-district that directly adjacent to Depok Sub-District where there are universities as a trigger for population growth which results in increased space needs in form of settlements. The urbanization processes has resulted in pressure on the urban natural resources. The land use change without considering of environmental conservation, population growth, and excessive extraction of groundwater (Hendrayana, 2013; D. Imam, 2013; Sutardi, 2017) become cause of natural resources pressure. Groundwater resources are one of the natural resources that have a vital role in peoples welfare. In the midst of massive urbanization processes in Ngemplak Sub-District, the preservation of groundwater resources must be maintained so that the benefits of the groundwater can be felt by people across generations. The concept to maintain the sustainability of groundwater resources is to apply zonation-based planning for potential groundwater pollution. This research was conducted in Ngemplak Sub-District. The purpose of this research was to identify the potential of groundwater pollution zonation of Ngemplak Sub-District and to develop an appropriate strategy for urban development based on the potential zoning results of groundwater pollution. Potential groundwater pollution is the ability of a region based on the ease of the groundwater itself to be polluted. The geospatial method which can be used to assess the potential of groundwater pollution is the GOD method (Ghazavi, 2015; Hastuti, 2016; Sharadqah, 2017; Oroji, 2018). This method use three parameters, they are groundwater occurrence (G), overall aquifer class (O), and depth to water table (D). The data of aquifer and rock type of unsaturated zone are obtained from groundwater drilling log profiles as the secondary data, while the primary data which is used in this research are the depth of groundwater data. The data is processed into three thematic maps, they are maps of aquifer type, maps of rock type on unsaturated zone, and maps of groundwater depth. The final product is processed by overlaying those three maps using ArcGIS 10.3. The result of this process is the zone of potential contaminated groundwater. The results of groundwater contaminated zones identification are used to develop appropriate regional development strategies. This analysis was carried ou
