Lightning Detection Systems

Lightning Detection Systems is a technical framework designed to identify and locate lightning discharges by analyzing electromagnetic signals, distinguishing itself from other environmental monitoring systems through its specific focus on detecting both cloud-to-ground and intra-cloud lightning activity for the purpose of enhancing lightning safety and supporting lightning protection strategies.
