”Harmonability” Create a society that is harmonized with the natural world
Since its establishment in 1950 as Japan’s first privately-run meteorology company, the Japan Weather Association has been providing timely and highly reliable meteorological information to various regions in Japan. As a pioneer in the meteorological services industry in Japan, we have independently developed general weather prediction systems and information service systems, practiced safe and comfortable daily living through provision of disaster-prevention/environmental technology and consulting services that are backed by a high level of expertise, and have been contributing to the development of various industrial activities and environmental conservation. The JWA will continue making efforts toward utilization and raising awareness of weather and disaster-prevention information, and will continue contributing to society in the future as well.
