Abstract

An increase in the area of built-up space can lead to a decrease in the green open space of urban forest in industrial areas so that the minimum standard for urban forest area is not met. One of the environmental management that can provide thermal comfort in industrial areas is urban forests. This article aims to analyze and evaluate the availability and needs of urban forest vegetation to provide thermal comfort in industrial estates by utilizing Landsat 8 satellite imagery. The methods used in this article are qualitative and quantitative analysis. The qualitative methods were using secondary data in the form of literature studies. Meanwhile, the quantitative methods were following to obtain information on the availability and needs of urban forest vegetation using the Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) method on Landsat 8 images. The analysis of urban forest vegetation in industrial areas found that forest vegetation city in industrial area X has a fairly low area. The distribution is not evenly distributed and only at a few points. The current urban forest vegetation needs for each workforce in industrial areas X is 3.96 m2 / person.
