Japan&#039;s weather observation satellite Himawari will play an important role in a project starting next month to help reduce air pollution in Thailand.
                
The Japan International Cooperation Agency, or JICA, will be working jointly with the Thai government on a project to reduce air pollutants called PM2.5.
                
PM2.5 concentrations often surpass allowable standards in Thailand, mainly during the dry season when forest fires occur naturally, and farmers conduct open-air burning after the sugarcane harvest.
                
A project briefing was held last week during an international space-themed trade fair near Bangkok.
                
Experts are worried that the increasing pollution could harm human health and impact tourism, the country&#039;s key industry.
                
The new project will use observation data from the Himawari satellite on a near real-time basis to detect exact locations of open-air burning and wildfires.
                
The data will help the Thai government and local authorities quickly detect a fire and take measures to prevent its spread.
                
The data will also be used when the authorities instruct farmers in an effort to reduce open-air burning.
                
Suzuki Kazuya, who heads the JICA office in Thailand, said that the Thai government considers reducing air pollution to be its top priority.
                
He said that Japan, as a country with experience over many years and the technology to address the problem, will help with Thailand&#039;s efforts to reduce its air pollution.
