A summary of NOAA receiving resumed at Syowa Station, and preliminary results
NOAA satellite data acquisition was resumed at Syowa Station in March 1997. As a result of replacement of the facility, the capacity of operation for satellite receiving and data processing was improved to permit receiving of all NOAA and DMSP transmission (except for their simultaneous coming), abo...

It was limited to one pass a day in a past. The received data are imaged immediately at the station, and set on the web-site which is available in the LAN of only Syowa Station.
