Abstract

Indonesia's diverse climate types, influenced by its unique geographical features, pose significant environmental challenges, including water quality issues related to turbidity and Total Dissolved Solids (TDS). Many Indonesians lack awareness of water quality, particularly turbidity, which can harbor harmful microorganisms. To address these challenges, this study employs digital image processing and machine learning, specifically Support Vector Machine (SVM) algorithms, for water quality assessment. A dataset of 80 water images, categorized into seven turbidity classes, is used to train and test the model. Results show a clear correlation between turbidity levels and TDS concentrations and pH values. The system accurately assesses water suitability for different sources, offering a user-friendly and cost-effective solution for water quality monitoring in dynamic environmental conditions. However, limitations include the dataset size and the narrow focus on turbidity. Future research could expand to encompass a broader range of water quality factors. This approach holds promise for enhancing water quality management in Indonesia and similar regions.
