Geographic Information System (GIS) is a computer-based information system, and is designed to process data that has spatial information. The high dynamics and activities of the city are developing rapidly, whether it is the physical city or inhabitants activities, such as in the city of Palembang. The existence of green open space in Palembang has decreased every year, while the land has been growing wider. The purpose of this study is to find the changing of availability of green open space using geographic information systems and satellite imagery and to know the green open space needed for the people of Palembang. The research method is a quantitative research method, using primary and secondary data. Primary data is obtained from observation and imagery data processing. Secondary data is obtained online (palembang in figures/BPS) and various reference references from previous research. Analysis is doing by digital imagery interpretation. Furthermore, the imagery classification process uses the supervised classification method. The results of the analysis show that the availability of green open space in Palembang in 2007 was 229.59 km2, in 2017 it decreased to 123.83km2. Meanwhile, the built up area has increased from 2007 to 2017 each of 107.55 km2 and 223.95 km2. Total area needed as a green open space based on oxygen demand by the people of Palembang is 23,839.12897 ha. Keywords- GIS, Remote Sensing, Green Open Space, Palembang.
