Agent-Based Model for River-Side Land-living: Portrait of Bandung Indonesian Cikapundung Park Case Study
Hokky Situngkir

TL;DR
This paper uses agent-based modeling to explore how organic settlements along the Cikapundung River in Bandung impact water pollution and urban revitalization, providing insights for better policy decisions.
Contribution
It introduces two agent-based simulation scenarios to analyze settlement dynamics and park usage, integrating satellite and drone imagery for realistic landscape modeling.
Findings
Insights into waste disposal behaviors and their impact on river health
Understanding of settlement patterns affecting urban revitalization
Potential policy implications for sustainable urban development
Abstract
A city park has been built from the organic urban settlement in the Cikapundung River, Bandung, Indonesia. While the aim for the development is the revitalization of the river for being unhealthy from the waste coming from the settlement. A study on how Indonesian people, in general, treating water source, like river, lake, and ocean is revisited. Throwing waste into the river has actually become paradox with the collective mental understanding about water among Indonesians. Two scenarios of agent-based simulation is presented, to see the dynamics of organic settlement and life of the city park after being opened for public. The simulation is delivered upon the imagery of landscape taken from the satellite and drone. While experience for presented problems gives insights, the computational social laboratory also awaits for further theoretical explorations and endeavors to sharpen good…
