Abstract

The increasing global urbanization, particularly in coastal regions, coupled with the risks of climate change and land subsidence, underscores the need to monitor coastal urban development for sustainability. This study focused on the coastal metropolitan regions of Poland's Tri-City and Indonesia's Semarang, employing GIS, remote sensing (RS), and cloud computing. By integrating nighttime light (NTL) and the Built-Up Land Features Extraction Index (BLFEI) through Google Earth Engine (GEE) and Object-Based Image Analysis (OBIA), the study aimed to gain insights into urban development trends. The methodology encompassed image collection, analysis, and classification over three decades (1992, 2007, 2022). Despite efforts to enhance accuracy through built-up masking in subsequent years, the methodology achieved an overall accuracy of 95% for the 2022 maps, while maps in 1992 and 2007 fell short (overall accuracy ranging from 0.81 to 0.90) in comparison. The analysis revealed a gradual expansion of built-up areas in both regions, with Gdynia and Gdańsk emerging as primary drivers in the Tri-City metropolitan region and Semarang as the primary driver in the Semarang metropolitan region. Notably, the Semarang metropolitan region exhibited an increase in waterbody areas, attributed to coastal flooding and land subsidence challenges.
