The Large Area Air Shower (LAAS) group was established in 1996 under a unique conception of cosmic ray observation in Japan. The LAAS group has been performing a network observation of EAS using 9 indep endent scintillator arrays scattered over a very large area. Two more arrays, one of which is at Norikura Observatory (2770m a.s.l.), are planned to be constructed in the near future. They utilize GPS receivers (1µs accuracy) for getting time stamps of EAS arrivals and the observational data are recorded under a standardized format. Thus we can handle all datasets from the LAAS arrays easily and homogeneously as if they were from a gigantic EAS detector system. The sub jects we are studying by this project include large-scale correlations in EAS, GRB-like sporadic phenomena, EHE cosmic rays around 1018 eV and large-scale atmospheric dynamics. The current status and future prosp ects of the LAAS project are presented here.
