- Abstract
An earthquake is a shaking incident of the earth due to the movement or shift of rocks in the lithospheric part. This occurs suddenly due to the movement of tectonic plates. Central Sulawesi is an area of Sulawesi Island that has a high level of seismicity. This is because Sulawesi Island has many active local faults that can trigger earthquakes. Based on the historical records, there have been several earthquakes that have occurred in Central Sulawesi, and some of that is caused by tsunamis, in 1996 at Toli-toli and Palu and the latest one occurred in Palu, Sigi, Donggala, and Parigi on 28 September 2018. This research aims to group the potential earthquake area in Central Sulawesi using the K-Means method by applying the R packages. The results show that we obtained the 2 cluster data. The data characteristic in cluster 1 consists of data that has a low depth so that it is more likely to damage infrastructures but it has no potential for tsunamis. Moreover, the data characteristic in cluster 2 consists of data that has high-depth consequences it does not have any potential to damage the infrastructure, but it could potentially have a tsunami. Finally, the web application for potential grouping earthquake areas in Central Sulawesi using the K-Means algorithm is obtained in this research. This is essential to minimize the impacts of the damage due to earthquakes and tsunamis.
