Challenge
-
During the dry season, the groundwater levels in peatland can significantly decrease, leading to widespread and challenging-to-control fires. Meanwhile, during the rainy season, the risk of flooding also increases if peatland water levels are not properly managed.
-
The Peatland Quality Monitoring System serves as a tool to support policy decisions in natural resource management, environmental protection, and climate change mitigation. By utilizing data and information from the Peatland Quality Monitoring System, it is hoped that disaster management and peatland management in Indonesia can become more efficient, timely, and based on accurate data.

Schematic Sistem Pemantauan Kualitas Lahan Gambut
Sistem Pemantauan Kualitas Lahan Gambut consists of several main parts :
1.Sensor Monitoring Groundwater Level
Sensors in the Peatland Quality Monitoring System device continuously measure and monitor groundwater levels. Data generated from these sensors is sent in real-time to the monitoring center.
2.Monitoring Center
Data collected from the sensors is processed and analyzed at the monitoring center. This monitoring center is typically managed by relevant institutions. Here, data is transformed into understandable information that can be used for decision-making purposes.
3.Early Warning and Alarms
Based on the monitored data, the Peatland Quality Monitoring System can provide early warnings and alarms to industries if the groundwater level in peatland rises and approaches dangerous levels or specific limits.
