Abstract
The Kampung Tambora is a historical urban kampung located in West Jakarta. Since 2020, this kampung has been claimed as the most populous area in ASEAN, its density and irregularity have been suspected as a contribution to various environmental issues, like spatial quality, health conditions, and disasters. Density is associated with dimensions, area, type, and spatial form, including building configuration and orientation which affect accessibility, mobility, and penetration of resources into the sites. Because of its complexity, nowadays density has become one of research urgency to comprehend kampung Tambora spatial quality. To support the investigation, the research aims to study Kampung Tambora’s geometry by using typology and morphology as the methodology. Genomic tabulation is utilized as an instrument to present sample quality. By concentrating on geometry, genomic architecture converts its spatial quality into architectural tabulation, recommending the character of form while highlighting its urban patterns. QGIS is used as a tool to assist in the production of:
· Mapping,
· Tabulation, and
· Geometrical extraction.
As the pattern emerges, a rule of irregularity can be formulated, thus geometry can be interpreted to improve its condition.
