Abstract
Land degradation is defined as a condition in which the quantity and quality of land resources needed to support ecosystem functions and services and increase food security continues to decline on a temporal and spatial scale under certain ecosystem conditions (Sarino et al. in IOP Conf Ser Earth Environ Sci, pp 1–10, 2019). These changes, combined with population growth, have led to the conversion of agricultural land to developed land, high exploitation of natural and mineral resources, and urbanization, which usually leads to more significant land degradation (Putranto et al. in pp 100016-1–100016-10, 2017). Sub-watershed scale analysis related to the distribution of degraded land by utilizing multi-temporal geospatial layers (Putranto et al. in Int J Geomate 14(45):28–34, 2018) helps provide a regionally consistent data set of required land distribution. Therefore, it can support agendas aligned with sustainable development goals (SDGs) (Guo et al. in 11:1–20, 2019). By utilizing scientific big earth data, which is periodically integrated with terrestrial, aquatic, and hydrological data, it has the potential to assess degraded land as outlined in SDG’s target point 15.3.1 (Yuono et al. in J Ecol Eng 21:126–130, 2020). The Rawas sub-watershed is a river drainage area that originates at one of the peaks of Mount Kerinci. Geologically, the Rawas sub-watershed includes lowlands which are quarterly alluvial deposits from the Pleistocene to the present age. The availability of water in the Rawas watershed until 2020 is sufficient to serve the villages in the watershed. With the most significant water resource potential in November, December, and January to March, approximately 52 mm/month. Meanwhile, in other months, water availability in the Rawas watershed is below 3 mm/month and even close to 0 mm/month.
