Improvements to the BOLT lightning location system
2016 33rd International Conference on Lightning Protection (ICLP), 2016The Broadband Observational network for Lightning and Thunderstorms (BOLT) is a network of low frequency electric field antennas which is capable of mapping lightning flashes in 3D. We are currently investigating improvements to both the hardware design of the BOLT antennas, and to the algorithm used to determine each lightning source location.

Performance of lightning locating systems in extracting lightning flash characteristics
Journal of Atmospheric and Solar-Terrestrial Physics, 2014Abstract A study was carried out to compare the negative cloud to ground lightning discharges recorded using Swedish lightning locating system against time correlated direct field measurements. Only the first 200 ms time window was investigated. A total of 167 flashes were recorded and time matched against the lightning locating system records.

The Belgian Lightning Location System (BELLS)
2023<p>The Royal Meteorological Institute of Belgium (RMI) has been operating a lightning detection network since 1992. Over the past years, the network has undergone upgrades at the level of soft- and hardware. The present-day Belgian Lightning Location System (BELLS) consists out of 14 LS7002 sensors, out of which five are owned by RMI and ...

Analysis of the French lightning locating system location accuracy
2015 International Symposium on Lightning Protection (XIII SIPDA), 2015The location accuracy is one of the important parameters characterizing the performance of a lightning location system. It is also one of the most difficult to determine as the actual location of the discharge being located must be accurately known to achieve a reliable assessment of the real error.

Evaluation of Lightning Location accuracy of JLDN with a lightning video camera system
2010 Asia-Pacific International Symposium on Electromagnetic Compatibility, 2010This paper discusses evaluation of Lightning Location accuracy of Japan Lightning Detection Network (JLDN). JLDN has observed lightning activities since 1998. It has been said that the nominal location accuracy of JLDN is less than 500 meters in most area of Japan. But, the actual location accuracy of JLDN has not been evaluated.

Development of a lightning recording and location system
11th International Symposium on High-Voltage Engineering (ISH 99), 1999A low-cost system for the automatic recording of lightning was developed at the High Voltage Laboratory of National Technical University of Athens, Greece. The system includes two pair loop antennae for the measurement of the magnetic flux density caused by the lightning current, an electronic integrator of the signal, a data acquisition system and a ...

Establishment of estimation lightning density method with lightning location system data
IEEE Power Engineering Society. 1999 Winter Meeting (Cat. No.99CH36233), 1999The lightning strike density level in areas through which power transmission lines will pass is an important factor in designing lightning-proof transmission lines. Formerly, IKL (Tsokeraunic-Level) maps were used to evaluate lighting strike density.

U Hrvatskoj je krajem 2008.g. prvi put uspostavljen sustav za lociranje udara munja (eng. Lightning Location System – LLS) kao dio poznatog LINET sustava koji u Europi ima oko 100 senzora. Četiri senzora LINET sustava su instalirana na slijedećim lokacijama: Komolac kod Dubrovnika, Split, Melina kod Rijeke i Žerjavinec kod Zagreba.

Lightning Warning and Locator Systems
1993During the 1991 U.S. Open golf tournament at Hazelton National Golf Club, in Chasca, Minnesota, lightning struck and killed a spectator and injured five others. After the tragedy, newspapers printed their reports under such headlines as “golf must take steps to warn fans of storms” and “lightning detector no guarantee of golf tournament safety.”
