Abstract

Tidal data has a significant role in various fields in hydrographic surveys and navigation, port planning, and other coastal management. The number of fixed tide stations in Indonesia is minimal compared to the vast territorial waters in Indonesia. So that for areas that are not covered by tidal fixed stations, direct tidal observation with a certain length of observation is necessary, and of course, this requires quite expensive costs. Fortunately, there are regional and global tidal data predictions that can be used to determine tidal conditions in Indonesian waters. In this study, the regional (BIG) and the global (FES2014 and TPXO9) tidal data prediction models were validated with direct observation in the five locations such as Surabaya, Gresik1, Gresik2, Bangkalan, and Giligenting for 39 hours. The root means square error (rmse) calculation results show that in the five locations, the BIG tidal prediction has the smallest rmse value in three tidal stations at Gresik 1, Gresik 2, and Gili Genting with 0.303 m, 0.050 m, and 0.155 m respectively. At the same time, the TPXO9 tidal model shows the biggest rmse at Gresik 1, Gresik 2, and Bangkalan with 0.420 m, 0.195 m, and 0.630 m, respectively.
