Technological development on globalization era enable the application of remote sensing technology in access speed and accuracy for mapping land cover based on image classification. The objective on this study is to investigate the utilization of remote sensing imagery of Landsat 8 Operational Land Imager (OLI) for the classification of land cover in oil palm area. Methodology consists of collecting of Landsat 8 OLI, radiometric and geometric correction, making the Region of Interest (ROI) based on class are used in the multispectral classification process to know the land cover in the form of oil palm area, accuracy analysis, and mapping land cover classification with the highest accuracy and kappa coefficient. The algorithm used for classification of land cover types to make class are Maximum Likelihood, Minimum Distance, and Support Vector Machine (SVM) by using various bands on Landsat image and added Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI). The results in this study show that Support Vector Machine is the best Algorithm of three classification algorithms using all bands on Landsat 8 OLI image with overall accuracy of 96, 21%(kappa coefficient 0, 9041), Maximum Likelihood Algorithm with overall accuracy of 89, 53%(kappa coefficient 0, 7713), and Minimum Distance Algorithm with overall accuracy of 84, 83%(kappa coefficient 0, 6799).
