Short summary

Tornado is a destructive meteorological phenomenon that can injure, kill people, and damage infrastructure. Indonesia has no tornado database yet. We collected tornado reports from numerous scattered reports between 1800 and 2024 to analyze the climatological tornado for Indonesia, and the results are published in an open repository to catalyze future tornado studies in the tropics.
