Portal Satu Data Bencana Indonesia (BNPB)

Overview

The Portal Satu Data Bencana Indonesia (One Data on Disasters Indonesia) is the official open data platform of the National Disaster Management Authority of Indonesia (Badan Nasional Penanggulangan Bencana - BNPB). The portal provides public access to datasets related to natural disasters, emergency management, disaster risk reduction, and humanitarian response across the Indonesian archipelago.

Institutional Context

BNPB was established in 2008 under Law No. 24 of 2007 on Disaster Management as Indonesia's central government body for disaster management. The data portal aligns with Indonesia's national Satu Data (One Data) initiative, a government-wide open data framework launched in 2014 and formalized by Presidential Regulation No. 39 of 2019, which mandates the production, management, and sharing of standardized government data across agencies.

Collections and Holdings

The portal hosts datasets covering a wide range of disaster-related information, including records of historical disaster events, damage assessments, displacement figures, risk maps, early warning data, and humanitarian aid distribution records. Data encompasses floods, earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, landslides, tsunamis, and other natural hazards that frequently affect Indonesia. The datasets are available in machine-readable formats and are intended for use by researchers, policymakers, emergency managers, civil society organizations, and journalists covering disaster and climate-related topics.

Access and Usage

The portal is freely accessible online at data.bnpb.go.id/dataset. Data can be browsed and downloaded by the public without registration. It is an important resource for journalists and media organizations reporting on Indonesia's disaster landscape, and for researchers studying climate resilience and humanitarian response.
