Abstract

Geothermal energy is a renewable resource derived from the Earth's interior that provides an environmentally friendly alternative. Indonesia is at the forefront of geothermal potential, possessing ample resources primarily concentrated in places like Sumatra. However, there is a requirement for greater exploitation of this potential. This research utilizes unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) and thermal imaging to detect geothermal indications in the Ie Jue region of Sumatra within the province of Aceh, Indonesia. The analysis focuses on three main manifestation locations using FLIR One thermal camera and water temperature gauges. The study leverages satellite imagery for comparative purposes. Temperature data highlights variations among distinct manifestations, underscoring the necessity for thorough exploration. Moreover, the study devises a secure pathway for researchers to access the site. This investigation contributes to comprehending geothermal activity and its possible role in sustainable energy and other domains.
