Surakarta City has a significant risk of fallen trees. Because of its long urban history, it has many old, diverse, and historic trees. On one side, it indicates the existence of historical urban vegetation, but on the other side, the old trees have a high risk of falling. The tropical climate causes extreme weather risks that have often occurred in recent eras. The urban stakeholders seek to keep the diverse trees to ensure the urban vegetation proportion in the city. This article explores the typology of fallen tree risks in Surakarta. The research used the spatial analysis of the geographic information system. It was supported by historical data on fallen trees in Surakarta compiled from urban institutions and electronic newspapers over the last three years. The correlation analysis supported this research in exploring the relationship between the level of fallen tree hazard, the existence of main roads impacted by the fallen trees, and the existence of urban green space. The occurrences of fallen trees were dominated along the main streets in the city, including primary and secondary roads. Furthermore, there is a correlation between the hazard of fallen trees and urban green space in the city. The sub-districts have a high proportion of urban vegetation in a linear relationship to the risk of fallen trees in the city. These results could be the implications of the Surakarta urban planning policy for disaster risk management.
