This research provides insights into the complexity of the road network layout in the regencies and cities of West Kalimantan Province through an analysis of entropy levels in the road networks across various cities in the province. This study aims to analyze the entropy levels of the road networks in the regencies and cities of West Kalimantan Province. In this context, entropy analysis provides insights into urban structure and the role of road networks in shaping city characteristics and understanding resilience and vulnerability. The results indicate that the entropy values of the road networks in West Kalimantan Province range between 3.4 and 3.5. Based on the entropy analysis, there are three groups of road networks in West Kalimantan Province: low, medium, and high. Regencies and cities with low entropy values (between 3.46 and 3.48) include Pontianak City and Singkawang City. Regencies and cities in the medium category (entropy values between 3.49 and 3.56) include Kayong Utara Regency, Ketapang Regency, Kubu Raya Regency, Sintang Regency, and Mempawah Regency. Regencies and cities with high entropy values (above 3.56) include Sambas Regency, Melawi Regency, Kapuas Hulu Regency, Bengkayang Regency, Sekadau Regency, Sanggau Regency, and Landak Regency. Several factors contribute to the entropy values of the road networks in the regencies and cities of West Kalimantan Province, including topography and geography, population density, infrastructure development, economic and social factors, urban planning, and traffic management.
