Using the reference DC and FFMC from observation data, we calculated the accuracy, bias, and error. The results showed that FFMC from satellite data had a fairly good correlation with FFMC observations (r=0.68, bias=7.6, and RMSE=15.7), while DC from satellite data had a better correlation with FFMC observations (r=0.88, bias=49.91, and RMSE=80.22). Both FFMC and DC from satellite and observation were comparable. Nevertheless, FFMC and DC satellite data showed an overestimation values than that observation data, particularly during dry season. This study also indicated that DC and FFMC could describe fire occurrence within a period of 3 months before fire occur, particularly for DC. These results demonstrated that remote sensing data can be used for monitoring and ear...

The burnt area is thought to have a relatively higher temperature than the surrounding area were not burned. This study aims to determine the characteristics of the temperature of the burned area using remote sensing data of Landsat-8 TIRS (Thermal Infra Red Sensor). The selected research locations are parts of Central Kalimantan and South Kalimantan incoming Landsat scene-8 path / row 118/062. The research method is a data processing Landsat-8 TIRS (channels 10 and 11) to produce an image of the brightness temperature as well as data analysis includes a statistical analysis of central tendency of the values of the brightness temperature of the sample (calculation of mean and standard deviation) as well as distance calculation (D-value). The results showed that the brightness temperature data either channel 10 or channel 11 Landsat-8 TIRS has good ability in separating the burned area and bare soil, but has a low ability to separate the burned areas and settlements. Thus, the brightness temperature parameter cannot be used as a single variable for the extraction of burned areas in a scene image of a single acquisition. Abstrak Peristiwa kebakaran biomassa pada suatu daerah akan menyisakan bekas-bekas kebakaran seperti arang, abu, serta singkapan tanah pada daerah tersebut yang dikenal dengan burned area . Daerah bekas kebakaran tersebut diduga memiliki temperatur yang relatif lebih tinggi dibandingkan dengan daerah sekitarnya yang tidak terbakar. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui karakteristik temperatur burned area menggunakan data penginderaan jauh Landsat-8 Thermal Infra Red Sensor (TIRS). Lokasi penelitian yang dipilih adalah sebagian wilayah Kalimantan Tengah dan Kalimantan Selatan yang masuk scene Landsat-8 path/row 118/062. Metode penelitian yang dilakukan adalah pengolahan data Landsat-8 TIRS (kanal 10 dan 11) untuk menghasilkan citra suhu kecerahan serta analisis data yang meliputi analisis statistik tendensi sentral dari nilai-nilai suhu kecerahan dari sampel (perhitungan rerata dan standar deviasi) serta perhitungan jarak ( D-value ). Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa data suhu kecerahan baik kanal 10 maupun kanal 11 Landsat-8 TIRS memiliki kemampuan yang baik dalam memisahkan burned area dan lahan terbuka, namun memiliki kemampuan yang rendah untuk memisahkan burned area dan permukiman. Dengan demikian, parameter suhu kecerahan belum bisa dipergunakan sebagai variabel tunggal untuk ekstraksi burned area pada suatu scene citra perekaman tunggal.

The catastrophic incidence of volcanic eruptions in the last ten years has had a disastrous impact on human life. To overcome this problem, it is necessary to conduct research on the strengthening of the early warning system for volcanic eruptions utilising remote sensing technology. This study analyses spatial and temporal anomalies of surface brightness temperature in the peak area of Karangetang volcano during the 2018-2019 eruption. Karangetang volcano is an active volcano located in North Sulawesi, with a magmatic eruption type that releases lava flow. We analyse the anomalies in the brightness temperature from channel-10 of the Landsat-8 TIRS (Thermal Infrared Scanner) time series during the period in question. The results of the research demonstrate that in the case of Karangetang Volcano the eruptions of 2018-2019 indicate increases i...

MSI Level 1C (MSIL1C) data from 16 November 2018 were extracted into a water index such as the NDWI (Normalized Difference Water Index) model of Gao (1996), McFeeters (1996), Roger and Kearney (2004), and Xu (2006). Water index were analyzed based on the presence of several objects (water, vegetation, soil, and built-up). The research resulted in the ability of each water index to separate water and non-water objects. The results conclude that the NDWI of McFeeters (1996) derived from Sentinel-2 MSI showed the best results in detecting the surface water area of the reservoir.

Many researches of CWSI have been done for arranging irigation water system in several crops at different areas. Beside its application in irigation system, CWSI is also known as one of parameters that can influence crop productivity. Regarding the above explanation, it is implied that CWSI is important for monitoring crop drought, arranging irigation water, and estimating crop productivity. This research is proposed to estimate CWSI using MODIS (Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer) data which is related to Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) and Soil Moisture Storage (ST) in paddy field. The interest area is in East Java wich is the driest area in Java Island. MODIS land surface temperature is used to estimate CWSI, while MODIS reflectance 500 m is used to estimate NDVI. They were downloaded from NASA website. Data period w...

On 22 Dec 2018, a sector collapse event occurred at Anak Krakatau volcano in the Sunda Strait, triggering a deadly tsunami. Here we use multiparametric ground-based and space-borne data to show that prior to its collapse, the volcano exhibited an elevated state of activity, including precursory thermal anomalies, an increase in the island’s surface area, and a gradual seaward motion of its southwestern flank on a dipping décollement. Two minutes after a small earthquake, seismic signals characterize the collapse of the volcano’s flank at 13:55 UTC. This sector collapse decapitated the cone-shaped edifice and triggered a tsunami that caused 430 fatalities. We discuss the nature of the precursor processes underpinning the collapse that culminated in a complex hazard cascade with important implications for the early detection of potential flank instability at other volcanoes.

Studying the dynamics of coastal landform change is important for tracing the relationship between coastal landform changes and tidal flooding in the coastal areas of Pekalongan, Indonesia. The method of integrating remote sensing data with geographic information system (GIS) techniques has been widely used to monitor and analyze the dynamics of morphology change in coastal landform areas. The purpose of this study is to map the dynamics of landform change in the study area from 1978 to 2017 and to analyze its implications for the impact of tidal flooding. The results of the mapping and change analysis associated with coastal landforms can be classified into four landform types: beach, beach ridge, backswamp and alluvial plain. Changes in coastal morphology and landform topography affected by land subsidence...

Flood disasters in the Bandung basin result from increasing population density, especially in the Citarum riverbank area, accompanied by land use changes in upstream of the Citarum catchment area which has disrupted the river’s function. One of the basic issues that need to be investigated is which areas of the Bandung basin are prone to flooding. This study offers an effective and efficient method of mapping flood-prone areas based on flood events that have occurred in the past through the use of historical remote sensing image data. In this research, Landsat-8 imagery was used to observe the inundated area in the Bandung basin in the past (2014–2018) using an improved algorithm, the modified normalized water index (MNDWI). The results of the study show that MNDWI is the appropriate parameter to be used to detect flooded areas in the Bandung basin area that have heterogeneous land surface conditions. The flood-p...
