Since the 1970s, Earth-observing satellites collect increasingly detailed environmental information on land cover, meteorological conditions, environmental variables and air pollutants. This information spans the entire globe and its acquisition plays an important role in epidemiological analysis when in situ data are unavailable or spatially and/or temporally sparse. In this paper, we present the development of Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency's (JAXA) Public-health Monitoring and Analysis Platform available from JAXA, a user-friendly, web-based system providing environmental data on shortwave radiation, rainfall, soil moisture, the normalized difference vegetation index, aerosol optical thickness, land surface temperature and altitude. This system has been designed so that users should be able to download and utilize data without the need for additional data processing. The website allows interactive exchange and users can request data for a specific geographic location and time using the information gained for epidemiological analysis.
自20世纪70年代以来，对地观测卫星收集了关于土地覆盖、气象条件、环境变量和空气污染物的日益详细的环境信息。这些信息覆盖全球，当现场数据不可用或在空间和/或时间上较为稀疏时，其获取在流行病学分析中发挥着重要作用。在本文中，我们介绍了日本宇宙航空研究开发机构（JAXA）的公共卫生监测与分析平台的发展情况，该平台可从JAXA获取，是一个用户友好的基于网络的系统，提供关于短波辐射、降雨、土壤湿度、归一化植被指数、气溶胶光学厚度、地表温度和海拔的环境数据。该系统的设计使得用户无需进行额外的数据处理就能下载和使用数据。该网站允许交互式交流，用户可以利用为流行病学分析获取的信息，请求获取特定地理位置和时间的数据。
