SUMMARY Land subsidence is one of vertical deformation of the earth’s crust as a consequence of crustal dynamics. Land subsidence changes the vertical position (height/elevation) of the ground control points as reference points for all engineering works, and which also influence the structure of all infrastructures and other related activities in the area. The GPS land subsidence monitoring network was established in Jakarta metropolitan area and the observations were held in December 1997, June 1999, June 2000, June 2001 and October 2001 respectively. The rate of land subsidence at each location of GPS monitoring points shown the average variations from 7.5 cm to 32.8 cm within four years period. This means that the land subsidence is influenced by the characteristic of local area where the points are located. The heights obtained by GPS satellite observation periodically has been used to figure out the trend of land subsidence and shown the largest rate of 84 mm/year at Pantai Indah Kapuk (North Jakarta). Moreover, comparing the land subsidence trend and the groundwater level trend at the wells located close to GPS monitoring points, a positive correlation between the two phenomena is shown. This can be concluded that the land subsidence is also influenced by groundwater extraction. Considering the land subsidence effect, the investigation of land subsidence in Jakarta metropolitan area and other cities is essential in support of spatial planning at present as well as in the future and of monitoring the established physical facilities. The availability of height data maintained periodically would be the input to figure the land subsidence out.
