Main Activities
Earth Observation
To capture the climate change, hydro-meteorological observation network is enhanced. By combining radar images with observed date, surface rainfall data with high resolution will be produced. →transfer of high technology, helps understanding climate change in Japan, the base of early warning system

Impact assessment for adaptation strategy
Impact assessment of water sector underling the adaption strategy of respective sectors → prediction of future yield, coastal erosion. Hazard map
Development of Integrated System
Compiling water related information on one platform through optimizing information processing system. This platform provides efficient data sharing and management by related organizations.→ transfer of leading edge technology of information management
Applications
Application of information produced by the integrated system to the national adaptation strategy such as disaster mitigation , agriculture and industry policy and land use planning contributes to the safe and sustainable society.
