I recently located the website of the Hokkaido Government, which talks about the symbols of Hokkaido. The website (all Japanese), lists the colors and dimensions of the Hokkaido flag. The main focus is that the symbol of Hokkaido is 10/14th's the hoist of the flag. The colors are provided in different formats, such as Munsell and CMYK.
