 Japan Meteorological Agency gives approval to the weather business based on the Meteorological Service Act  62 companies are approved for the meteorological information  53 companies are approved for the earthquake information  The amount of weather market is about 30 billion-yen  About 9,300 weather forecasters are certified 2 Annual report on the weather business by Japan Meteorological Agency Private weather companies in Japan Amount of market Number of companies nd. GPM Applications Workshop, June/9-10/2015

Value-added products from private weather companies  Filling the lack of public weather information Communicate clearly to the user Communicate in a timely Communicate in an appropriate way Communicate in an appropriate words  Value-added products made from basic data Information which meet the demands of users  The value of information is determined by the compensation of user’s satisfaction level 32nd.

2nd. GPM Applications Workshop, June/9-10/20156 Weather column by Ms. Mirei Kawashima Certified Weather Forecaster Looking a global rainfall map Usually, you are using observed rainfall information by weather radars on the ground. But rainfall observation is available from space. Today, I introduce a global rainfall map using satellite observation JAXA’s GSMaP products are used in tenki.jp weather portal site. In this case, two tropical cyclones were approaching and their rainfall distribution on the Pacific ocean was explained.
