Abstract

This paper discusses an early investigation of the impact of the Covid-19 on the socio-economic activities by using the electricity consumption and the satellite nighttime light approach. This method was implemented in the island of Bali, a well-known tourism destination. The electricity consumption trend was investigated during a period of 2019-2020 and the result then was confirmed with the satellite image of nighttime light. The analysis results have shown that the declined electricity energy usage correlates with the reduced brightness level of the night time light. It was also found that the night time light image (NTL) from remote sensing data has successfully determined the areas with a significantly decreased socio-economic activities. In contrast, the image has also uncovered some areas with an increased in night time light brightness, which indicates an increased in socio-economic activities.
