This study aims to analyze the dynamics of land cover change on Tidore Island, North Maluku, over the period 2015-2025 using GIS technology and remote sensing data. The method used involved spatial and temporal analysis of PlanetScope satellite image data recorded in 2015, 2020 and 2025. The results showed that built-up land experienced a significant increase to 1,227.49 ha or 10.37% of the total area, reflecting the growing pressure of urbanization. Meanwhile, the vegetation area decreased to 89.37%, which could potentially threaten biodiversity and the stability of the local ecosystem. The remaining open space of 264.26 ha provides opportunities for further development, while also indicating the need for careful management to avoid negative impacts on the environment. These findings emphasize the importance of ongoing monitoring and effective spatial planning strategies to support environmental sustainability and adaptation to climate change on the islands.
