INTRODUCTION

Indonesia is part of the tropics where one third of the area is the ocean. The tropics are
regions of the earth's surface which are astronomically located around the equator which is
limited by latitudes 23.5˚LS and 23.5 ˚LU. The tropics are more intensive in receiving solar
radiation compared to the middle latitudes, high latitudes, and polar regions because of the
greater angle of sunlight in low latitudes. This causes sea surface temperatures in tropical
regions to be higher than in regions -other area. High sea surface temperatures can then form
a low pressure center that can trigger tropical cyclones which begin with tropical disturbances
then tropical depression, tropical storms, then tropical cyclones (Emanuel, 1988).
Technically, tropical cyclones are defined as synoptic scale non-frontal low pressure systems
that grow on warm waters with convective cloud regions and maximum wind speeds reaching
at least 34 knots in more than half the area around the center, and lasting at least six hours
(TCWC - Jakarta). Cyclone is a low pressure system with closed isobars commonly called
depression. Because in the tropics is a low pressure area, the air around it will move towards
the center of the low pressure area. The existence of the earth's rotational force causes this air
to not move in a straight line but instead undergoes a deflection. For the Northern
Hemisphere (BBU) area the air currents will turn opposite the clockwise direction.
Tropical cyclones that occur in Indonesia will have an impact on marine activities related to
the safety and smoothness of sea transportation, economic activities, fishing and so on. The
impact of tropical cyclones as synoptic scale weather phenomena can reach thousands of
kilometers from the center of the storm with a time scale of up to several days to weekly.
Tropical cyclone Dahlia grows with the formation in the southern part of Indonesia precisely
in the southeastern part of Sumatra's waters. The formation phase begins with the formation
of tropical depression (TD) on November 28, 2017 and the formation process is followed by
the formation of tropical cyclone (TC) until December 1, 2017. This study aims to determine
the accuracy of tropical cyclone tracks and cyclone intensity levels. tropical on wind
components produced by combining the combination of multi-satellite Geostationary
Operational Environmental Satellite (GOES) type R and Himawari 8 to produce Storm Track
Intensity (STI) parameters, Wind Track Intensity (WTI), Surface Wind High Resolution
(SWHR) from cyclones tropical Dahlia in the pesisie region south of Yogyakarta.

DATA AND METHODOLOGY

Research on tropical cyclone Dahlia using data in the form of Himawari 8 satellite image data
and type R Geostationary Operational Environmental Satellites (GOES-NOAA) during the
incidence of tropical Dahlia cyclones (30 November - 1 December 2017). The data is taken at
01.34 UTC, 04.27 UTC, 07.32 UTC, 10.36 UTC, 13.42 UTC, 16.46 UTC for two days from
30 November - 01 December 2017.
