Indonesia monitoring stations with real-time Air Quality forecast overlay

Real-time Air Quality data for is now available for Indonesia. 10 stations located in major cities across Indonesia are measuring in real-time PM10 pollution.

The monitoring stations are operated by BMKG (Badan Meteorologi Klimatologi dan Geofisika), the Indonesian Department of Meteorology, Climatology and Geophysics.

The currently active stations are located in: Central Jakarta City, Medan City, Pekanbaru City, Jambi City, Palembang City, Pontianak, Banjarbaru City, Samarinda City.

As we explained in one of our previous articles, all the AQI figures published on the World Air Quality Index project are currently [1] using the US EPA standard.

While the Indonesian EPA has defined (like any other country) its own AQI scale, called 'IPSU' (for Indeks Standar Pencemar Udara), this is actually not a problem since the breakpoints used in the Indonesian standard for PM10 are actually more strict than the US EPA standard! The graph on the right shows the comparison for PM10 AQI scale for China, US and Indonesia.

One important point to notice is that there is no real-time PM2.5 real-time monitoring available. This is actually a common practice in South Asia, as many of the neighboring countries with Air Quality data available (namely Thailand, Malaysia and Brunei) are also only providing PM10 (exceptions are the Philippines and Vietnam).

While we do rely on BMKG to set-up the needed PM2.5 monitoring stations (hopefully starting with Jakarta), one might want to consider looking at our research report for deducting PM2.5 from PM10.

Note that to be completely relevant and accurate, the PM2.5 to PM10 AQI convertion formula described in the report needs to be adapated to Jakarta since the typical 'dust type' in Indonesia is different from South Korea (the conclusion in the research report is based on South Korean data).

This is actually something we might test-pilot conjointly with BMKG, so stay stuned (we will update this article).
