Development and space are one entity because space is a medium in development. Good development, optimally regulating the space and natural resources contained in it to preserve the environment. In the future, Pattallassang Sub-District will be designated as the largest economic region in Eastern Indonesia. This plan is regulated in PP No. 55/2011. The plan has also set Pattallassang District as a New City with satellite city functions. However, after several years of development, the construction of the New City Pattallassang, which is based on economic growth, has produced built-up land that has converted the functioning of agricultural land, forests and other productive agriculture in the last five years. Therefore, a follow-up plan is needed for land use for the environmental carrying capacity that is expected to produce an independent and optimal spatial planning. The purpose of this study was to analyze the ecological footprint, and environmental carrying capacity in Pattallassang Subdistrict in 2019. The analytical tool used analysis of ecological trace values consisting of calculation of ecological footprint (demand) population and biocapacity (supply) land use, and analysis environmental carrying capacity. The results showed that the population ecological footprint was 0.6368 gha/capita and land use biocapacity was 0.6371 gha/capita. The total value produced was 1.15 or deeper than the surplus used by bioproductive of at 1,108.17 ha.
