気象庁

The Japan Meteorological Agency (JMA) is a governmental organization responsible for weather forecasting, seismology, and related scientific activities. Within the space industry, JMA operates the Himawari series of geostationary meteorological satellites, which provide crucial data for weather monitoring, disaster prevention, and climate research over the Western Pacific and East Asia. These satellites, including Himawari-8 and Himawari-9, support the Global Observation System and contribute to international collaboration through data sharing with other National Meteorological and Hydrological Services. JMA also collaborates with JAXA on projects like volcanic disaster prevention, using satellite data to monitor volcanic activity.
