Abstract
Land resources are anything that can provide benefits in the physical environment which includes soil, climate, relief, hydrology and existing vegetation. This study aims to study the Land Capability and Suitability
Classification which is expected to be used as a technical guide for Land Use Planning in Jayapura District. The method used in this study is to use the Arcgis 10.3 Program by overlaying (overlapping) between digital
space pattern maps (shapefile format) and digital land capability maps (shapefile format). This process is called overlay spatial analysis (overlay) in the ^Union^ extension. Map of spatial patterns and land capability of thesame region (Jayapura district), same scale (1: 800,000) and same projections (geographic system) overlaid to obtain new territory and find criteria VIII of land capability class with a unified cultivation space pattern and produce area new as a priority for land use direction in Jayapura Regency Papua Province. The results of this study indicate that based on the results of the administrative map overlay and the Land System Map there are 42 characters from the land system and then with the standard Land Overlay capability class found 8 land capability groups, as follows: 1 ). The ability of class I land in the Land KFT System area of 8,758.30 Ha or 0.50%, 2. The capability of Class II land in the SPW, AMU, BVK, PPL, STL land area of 75,321.48 Ha or 1.33%, 3 Class III land capability on KRI, ORI, PTG, BOA, AFT, GRO, SRA land systems covering 957,522.34
Ha or 54.96%, 4. Class III land capability on MMM, FLY, GBT, INM, KJP land systems , SWA, TMN, TRT with an area of 203,192.52 Ha or 11.66%, 5. Class V land capability on a land system of 7,006.64 Ha or 0.40%, 6.
Class VI land capability on the AMS, NDB land system, SSR, GBO, KWS covering 168,891.10 hectares or 9.69%, 7. Ability of class VII land in the WKI land system area of 15,754.94 Ha or 0.91%, 8. Ability of class
VIII land in the WBU, STS land system, PAG, BSR, AUK,
