Primary data were obtained from surveys and field observations, namely by validating land use maps to obtain an overview of land conditions. The method used in this study was a remote sensing approach and geographic information system to extract information and analyze land cover changes that occur. The Landsat image analysis process was carried out to determine land cover changes. The results showed that the forest cover of Mesjid Raya in Banda Aceh did not decrease between 2004 and 2005, which was 0.1 ha. From 2005 to 2013 the area covered by 0.1 ha increased, and between 2013 and 2016 the forest cover area of Mesjid Raya increased by 0.1 ha. © 2024 Author(s).
