The need for rainfall data, especially for areas where the number of observation stations is not very close, is very important for local climate analysis activities. This data need can be met, one of which is from remote sensing data, such as Himawari 8. The Himawari 8 rainfall data are data derived using the INSAT Multi-Spectral Rainfall Algorithm (IMSRA) method based on the infrared channel on the Himawari 8 satellite. However, research on the IMSRA method was carried out using a case study of a region in India. Thus, validation is needed to determine the ability of Himawari 8 rainfall data to detect rain in Indonesia. The data used for comparison are CHIRPS and GSMaP rainfall data. In addition, BMKG rainfall data are used as benchmark data. The technique used for validation is using the Contingency Table method. The results of the validation show that the rain detection ability for Himawari 8 rainfall data is relatively good, namely 66% for 2019 and 85% for 2020. In addition, the ability to detect rain using Himawari 8 rainfall data is quite good compared to the ability to detect rain using CHIRPS rainfall data and GSMaP rainfall data.References
