Makassar City, the capital of South Sulawesi Province, has several advantages over other cities in the region. As an educational centre in eastern Indonesia, it attracts people seeking educational and employment opportunities. Its coastal location also provides various ecosystem services with environmental, economic, and social values, which contribute to the city’s continued urbanisation. The movement of people from rural areas to the city has driven rapid population growth and urban development, resulting in the conversion of open areas into built-up areas. These land-use and land-cover changes are largely driven by human activities to meet growing demands for housing, industry, and infrastructure. Changes in land use can be monitored using satellite imagery. This study uses Landsat data from 1997, 2002, and 2017 to analyse land-use changes, particularly the transformation of open areas into built-up areas. Spatial analysis was employed, using Landsat 5 TM imagery for 1997, Landsat 7 ETM+ imagery for 2002, and Landsat 8 OLI imagery for 2017 as the primary data sources for classifying open and built-up areas. The results indicate that the built-up area increased by 3.23% between 1997 and 2002 and by a further 10.94% between 2002 and 2017. In contrast, open areas decreased by 14.17% between 1997 and 2017. These changes demonstrate the continued expansion of built-up areas and the corresponding reduction in open areas. The findings provide useful information for government authorities and local communities to support future decision-making, particularly in relation to environmental management, land-use planning, and sustainable urban development.
