Abstract

This research aims to analyze the water quality of the Batang Merao watershed and the algorithm model implementation from Landsat 8 OLI/TIRS for the trans-parency of Lake Kerinci waters. The method used is descriptive quantitative which is used to obtain measured data on water quality using the IP method based on KEPMENLH No. 115/2003 and PP No. 82/2001, and the kriging method from an algorithm of the Landsat 8 OLI/TIRS for TSS concentrations with the transparency of the waters of Lake Kerinci. Based on the test results of water samples in the Batang Merao DAS showed that several water quality pa-rameters exceeded the class II water quality standard PP No. 82/2001 covers DO, BOD, and oil & fats parameters. Relationship between TSS concentration and water transparency of Kerinci Lake has a high coefficient of determination reach-ing 0.8344, this indicates the transparency of Kerinci Lake is around 2 m or less. This means that the waters of Lake Kerinci have lower transparency.
