Abstract

This study aims to promote the locations for establishing a junior high school (JHS) in Subang Regency, Indonesia. The spatial analysis with an overlay technique by Geographic Information System (GIS) with ArcGIS was used to evaluate the existence of JHS and select the effective locations for JHS in the future. The 7 parameters that indicated accessibility and safety: population, roads, slope, land use, rivers, earthquake hazard, and landslide hazard, all of these parameters were used and scored to lay out the map. The review based on Citra Satellite and geocoding is utilized to make the coordinates that describe specifically where the effective locations are. The results: 1) Inequality in the number of JHSs is found in large areas in Subang regency, characterized by the distribution of JHS locations that are not relevant to the population in certain subdistricts. 2) The Map and Coordinates, which show the effective locations for JHS establishment, have been successfully created. This study is architecting the educational equity, which is truly valuable to enhance, and also modelling for preparing the educational equity. The policymaker of the JHS establishment uses the proposed coordinate lists.
