Transit-Oriented Development (TOD) is an integrated land-use and transportation development concept with the high density and mix-land use as the two most characteristics. For developing TOD required land and water supporting system. Therefore, carrying capacity needs to applied in the planning and development process of TOD. This research aims to analyze the carrying capacity of TOD of DKI Jakarta. This research was carried out in the TOD Lebak Bulus and Dukuh Atas, which become the starting and the ending point of the phase 1 MRT line. The GIS overlay analysis used to find out the carrying capacity of the TOD areas, based on the variable of land capability and water availability. Land capability consists of the slope, land elevation, and land subsidence, while water availability consists of groundwater quality and service coverage of water companies. The TOD Lebak Bulus and Dukuh Atas have an area of 2 km² which is dominated by mixed land-use and settlements. The result shows that the slope of  TOD Lebak Bulus and Dukuh Atas are flat and level with a 0-8% slope, located in an ideal elevation with 0-50 meters above sea level, and the lowest level of land subsidence with less than 4 cm a year. In terms of water availability, TOD Lebak Bulus and Dukuh Atas have polluted groundwater, which consists of metallic substances, E.coli bacteria, and fecal waste. On the other hand, water availability of TOD Lebak Bulus and Dukuh Atas still covered by local water supply company. The carrying capacity of TOD Lebak Bulus and Dukuh Atas have not exceeded, but the critical thing to consider is the condition of contaminated groundwater, which increases the demand for clean water. The carrying capacity can determine the development capabilities of the TOD area, such as building intensity and floor area ratio.
