migration of DDB (distributed database) service of JMA to GISC Tokyo

Since (I think) 1997, Japan Meteorological Agency (JMA) operated a server
http://ddb.kishou.go.jp/ as a part of DDB (distributed database), which was
a subprogramme of WWW (World Weather Watch) of WMO (World Meteorological
Organization).

More than a decade has passed, and now the infrastructure of WMO programmes
has been reorganized into WIS (WMO Information System). JMA has been
operating GISC Tokyo http://www.wis-jma.go.jp/cms/ since August 2011,
together with TCC (Tokyo Climate Center)
http://ds.data.jma.go.jp/tcc/tcc/index.html .

The hardware for the "ddb" server will be decommissioned at the end of
February 2013. But most of services are already available also at GISC
Tokyo or TCC. Users are advised to migrate old URL to new ones. Please
check actual pages in http://ddb.kishou.go.jp/ for detailed migration
instruction.
