The Japan Meteorological Agency is responsible for meteorological services throughout the country. It mainly issues short-term, one-week and long-term weather forecasts, warnings and consultations of typhoons, rainstorms and snowstorms, and warnings of tsunamis, storms, tides and floods. In order to ensure these services, the Japan Meteorological Agency has continuously improved its observation methods, domestic and foreign communications, and weather analysis and forecasting systems. The basic business of the Meteorological Bureau is to provide daily meteorological information, earthquake, tsunami, volcanic activity and other natural disaster information. Daily meteorological information, from agriculture, fisheries, forestry to tourism and other services, has officially become an indispensable thing in economic activities. At the same time, information on natural disasters such as typhoons, rainstorms, earthquakes, tsunamis and volcanic activities, and corresponding measures such as disaster prevention and evacuation should be done to protect people's lives and property. Recently, large-scale environmental problems on the earth have been constantly occurring, and environmental observation data such as global warming, acid rain and air pollution have also been collected.
