Abstract

The Bandung zone has a relatively perpendicular movement with a speed of 6 - 7 cm/year so it becomes a factor in the frequent occurrence of earthquakes after a certain period at the plate contact boundary, resulting in landslides in several areas. The research area is administratively located in the Cipatat area and its surroundings, geographically it is at coordinates1040 17' 30” E – 1070 23' 0” E and 60 46' 0” S – 7 0 53” 30” S. The purpose of this study is to identify and describe disaster-prone areas by applying the Geographic Information System (GIS) method as a method of managing secondary data in the use and arrangement of information that produces the result of making a map of the land movement susceptibility zone. Making a map of the land movement susceptibility zone based on other basic maps based on Geographic Information System (GIS) research. At the data analysis stage, starting from digitizing the base map into ArcGIS into a digital map, then the data needed on the map is made into several thematic maps and combined by overlaying, to obtain zoning to limit areas prone to landslide disaster in the area. The zoning of land movement vulnerability in the research area is divided into 4 (four), starting with the very low vulnerability zone, medium vulnerability zone, high vulnerability zone to very high vulnerability zone.
