Since the last decade of the nineteenth century, Japanese empire started to build the meteorological network throughout East Asia as its territory was expanding through two wars: Sino-Japanese war in 1894 and Russo-Japanese war in 1904. This paper examines how Japanese empire built the meteorological network in East Asia and how it did function in Japanese colonial empire. Meteorological observatories were built at the strategic points in Taiwan, Korea, Manchuria, and Sakhalin because of the strategic value of weather information for warfare, and after the wars, observatories, wholly managed by Japanese meteorologists, had important role for colonial administration. Taiwan and Korea was recognized as the basement for advancing to the southern Pacific and the China continent, the observatories in Taipei and Inc’hön functioned as the colonial centers in south and north parts of imperial meteorological network respectively. Taipei and Inc’hön observatory collected weather data from local observatories in newly occupied area and were regulated to send them to the Central Meteorological Observatory in Tokyo. The structure of imperial meteorological network was thoroughly Tokyo-centered system. The Central Meteorological Observatory in Tokyo made weather forecast which covered the entire empire based on data sent from local observatories; most of meteorologists were educated in CMO and sent from Tokyo to observatories in colonies; meteorological society, in charge of meteorological knowledge production, was managed in CMO in actuality.
