Indonesia: Satellite Monitoring & Event Situation
Track recent event signals and monitor Indonesia from space — geolocated events, the most active areas, and satellite imagery in one place. Free to browse on the Delta Watchfloor.
Quick answer — what Off-Nadir Delta is
You can monitor Indonesia from space on Off-Nadir Delta — viewing Sentinel-1 SAR and Sentinel-2 optical imagery, tracking any area over time with anomaly detection, and overlaying geolocated event signals (from global news media) and active fires. In the past 7 days, 62 event signals were recorded in and around Indonesia, most in the natural disaster category.

Most active areas
Event data powered by the GDELT Project. Figures cover the mapped region around Indonesia and update hourly. For situational awareness only — not for tracking or targeting individuals.
Why Analysts Watch Indonesia From Space
Indonesia spreads 17,000 islands across three time zones, with the world’s most active volcano population, peat fires that haze all of Southeast Asia, and a sinking capital. The Malacca Strait at its western edge carries a quarter of global trade.
Typical monitoring angles
- Volcanic activity from Merapi to Sinabung via thermal anomalies and ash plumes
- Peatland fire outbreaks in Sumatra and Kalimantan during dry seasons
- Jakarta land subsidence and coastal flooding with SAR
Monitor Indonesia From Space
Off-Nadir Delta lets you watch Indonesia without any GIS software. View Sentinel-1 SAR (all-weather, day or night) and Sentinel-2 optical imagery, draw any area to build a time series with anomaly detection, and overlay active fires.
The Delta Watchfloor adds the event layer: geolocated signals in and around Indonesia, ranked by severity, that you can connect to satellite imagery in one tip-and-cue workflow.
