Indonesia air quality today The AQI right now, city by city

Right now the 156 cities Airleaf measures in Indonesia average AQI 83 (moderate). The worst air is in Parung, at AQI 195, and the cleanest in Bukittinggi, at AQI 17. At ground stations alone, which measure rather than estimate, the average is AQI 101 across 41 cities. 24% of the 156 measured cities are over AQI 100 today, where the air stops being fine for sensitive groups, and 19% have Good air.

Parung, at AQI 195 (Unhealthy) on the US EPA index. Everyone should limit long outdoor exertion; sensitive groups more so.

Bukittinggi, at AQI 17 (Good). Both lists rank current readings, from ground stations wherever Indonesia has at least three cities with one.

It depends on the city. 30 cities are Good, 89 cities are Moderate, 21 cities are Unhealthy for sensitive groups, 15 cities are Unhealthy, 1 city is Hazardous. At the national average of AQI 83: Unusually sensitive people should consider limiting long outdoor exertion.

About 33 million ha from 2001 to 2025, 21% of the forest it had in 2000, from the University of Maryland's yearly satellite maps of forest loss. 25 million ha of it was cleared for good, for farms, mines or towns.

Subulussalam, with 75.8% tree cover within 2 km of its center, measured from Sentinel-2 satellite images.

Each city's reading is the US EPA air quality index, from ground monitoring stations where one has reported recently nearby, and from the CAMS atmospheric model elsewhere; each city's report says which. Indonesia's ISPU is a different scale, explained on this page. Tree cover is measured over the same 2 km radius in every city, so the cities compare like for like.
