The Impact Analysis of Fire Disaster at Tamangapa, Makassar

Abstract

This research is a type of qualitative research using a descriptive phenomenological approach. This research aims to determine the impact of the fire disaster of the Tamangapa garbage dumpsite, Makassar. The results of the analysis showed that the health impacts that people felt were coughing, shortness of breath, dizziness, headaches and sore eyes. The environmental impact felt by the community is the presence of smoke, smog and foul odors. The social impact felt by the community is reduced income and schools are closed. Fire disasters for landfills have resulted in environmental damage which also has an impact on health and social issues, especially for people who live ≤ 500 meters from the landfill, experiencing the heaviest impact

Estimation of Makassar’s Landfill Surface Temperature and Its Surroundings Using Remote Sensing

“…Thus, it is also indicated that the high landfill temperature was probably influenced by the meteorological condition in 2018. The Landsat data used in this study for the year 2018 was also acquired before the landfill fire due to the hot climate in October [15]. However, in this study, meteorological data was not collected.…”
