<![CDATA[The state of water quality around Panggang Island, Seribu Islands, in recent decades experienced degradation caused by human activities. The parameters of the diffuse attenuation coefficient (Kd) is an important optical property-related attenuation of light in the water column, and its brightness. Landsat 8 data has potential to map the value of Kd(490) in regional waters in Indonesia. Landsat 8 data could provide solutions to spatial data availability of Kd(490) values in addition to Ocean Color data. The purposes of this research was to developed empirical algorithm of Landsat 8 data to derive values of Kd(490) that can be use as tools for monitoring water quality optically on a regional scale which could not be done by Ocean Color data that has spatial resolution limitation. In-situ measurement of radiometric data was done by using TriOS-RAMSES hyperspectral spectroradiometer with a range of 320 – 890 nm and spectral sampling of 3.3 nm on shallow-waters around Panggang Island. The development of Kd(490) algortihm was done by simulation on ratio of Green and Near-infrared band has great determination values with Kd(490) empirically, which that empirical algorithm can be applied on Landsat 8 data to derive its values. In addition, it is noted that the shallow-waters around Panggang Island, dominant affected by absorption of chlorophyll-a rather than scattering by suspended solids.]]>
