First data of the Colombia lightning mapping array — COLMA [PDF]
2016 33rd International Conference on Lightning Protection (ICLP), 2016 The first data set of VHF lightning mapping using a Lightning Mapping Array system - LMA in a tropical region is presented in this paper. Six sensors were installed at the north of Colombia near Santa Marta city. Since the installation of the LMA network in 2015, up to 7000 intra-cloud (IC) discharges from September to November 2015 have been analyzed.

Mapping lightning in the sky with a mini array [PDF]
Geophysical Research Letters, 2016 AbstractMini arrays are commonly used for infrasonic and seismic studies. Here we report for the first time the detection and mapping of distant lightning discharges in the sky with a mini array. The array has a baseline to wavelength ratio ∼4.2·10−2 to record very low frequency electromagnetic waves from 2 to 18 kHz.

Lightning Mapping Array flash detection performance with variable receiver thresholds [PDF]
Journal of Geophysical Research D: Atmospheres, 2016 AbstractThis study characterizes Lightning Mapping Array performance for networks that participated in the Deep Convective Clouds and Chemistry field program using new Monte Carlo and curvature matrix model simulations. These open‐source simulation tools are readily adapted to real‐time operations or detailed studies of performance.

Accuracy of the Lightning Mapping Array [PDF]
Journal of Geophysical Research, 2004 The location accuracy of the New Mexico Tech Lightning Mapping Array (LMA) has been investigated experimentally using sounding balloon measurements, airplane tracks, and observations of distant storms. We have also developed simple geometric models for estimating the location uncertainty of sources both over and outside the network.
