Mapping lightning channels in a thunderstorm by radar

IEEE Aerospace and Electronic Systems Magazine, 2003
The state of Georgia has experienced a number of tornados that occur without warning, and, in several cases have caused fatalities. Researchers at the Severe Storms Research Center (SSRC) of the Georgia Tech Research Institute (GTRI), Georgia Institute of Technology are attempting to detect tornado formation within severe thunderstorms occurring in the

Engineers map volcanic lightning

IEEE Spectrum, 2009
Volcanic eruptions are often accompanied by spectacular bursts of lightning-Krakatoa, Mount St. Helens, and Vesuvius have provided some relatively recent examples- and yet these breathtaking bolts are not well understood. Obtaining insight into volcanic lightning, besides being of considerable scientific interest, could make it possible to get earlier ...

The RELAMPAGO Lightning Mapping Array: Overview and Initial Comparison with the Geostationary Lightning Mapper

Journal of Atmospheric and Oceanic Technology, 2020
AbstractDuring November 2018–April 2019, an 11-station very high frequency (VHF) Lightning Mapping Array (LMA) was deployed to Córdoba Province, Argentina. The purpose of the LMA was validation of the Geostationary Lightning Mapper (GLM), but the deployment was coordinated with two field campaigns.

Simultaneous detection of lightning flashes by MMIA-ASIM and Colombia Lightning Mapping Array

2020
<p>Since April 2018, the Atmosphere-Space Interactions Monitor (ASIM) has been in operation on board the International Space Station (ISS). ASIM is composed of the Modular X-and Gamma Ray Sensor (MXGS) as well as a multispectral and high resolution array of photometers and cameras, called the Modular Multispectral Imaging Array ...

Field Mapping Techniques for Lightning Protection

IEEE Transactions on Aerospace, 1963
The lightning mast and overhead ground wire are well-established methods for protecting structures from direct lightning strokes. The advent of space vehicles and missiles with stored or contained propellants, and the exposure of extremely sensitive circuitry, compel the design engineer to investigate the degree of lightning hazard and to inquire into ...

Lightning data mapping of West Java province

2017 International Conference on Electrical Engineering and Computer Science (ICECOS), 2017
Historical lightning data could be use to evaluate certain transmission line in power system network. By using historical data from lightning detection system with combined Magnetic Direction Finder and Time of Arrival method, lightning data mapping for West Java province was presented in this paper.

LOFAR for lightning-interferometery and mapping

2017
We show that a new observation mode at the Low Frequency Array (LOFAR) for Lightning-Interferometery and Mapping (LIM) allows for lightning observations with a resolution that is at least an order of magnitude better than presently operating Lightning Napping Arrays LMAs.

Lightning ring signatures with the Meteosat Lightning Imager (MTG-LI) compared to the Lightning Mapping Array in northeastern Spain

Launched into geostationary orbit in December 2022, the first Meteosat Third Generation satellite contains the Lightning Imager, which started delivering data operationally since July 4th, 2024, monitoring lightning over Africa, Europe, western parts of the Middle East and eastern South America with a fixed angular resolution pixel size, equivalent to ...
