BlitzortungLive can be used for watching and monitoring Thunderstorms. Works well for going to the pool or baseball games. Later on, the system can be extended by further components and adjusted according to the experience acquired. It will be delivered partially assembled. The colors represent the age from now white to past dark red in 20 minutes time ranges.
The average delay is between 3 and 20 seconds depending on the load of our servers. Initially, only the point in time was computed at which the signal has been exceeded a certain threshold. I look forward to seeing updates that improve this app. Do not setup yet another visualization of online data. For general questions about Blitzortung.

Please contact commercial location services for such queries. The assistance of the participants during the construction of the system was too time-consuming for us. Then the tracker programs sent 128 or 256 samples to the servers.
I watched lightning strike a mountain in east Idaho and had it on the map before the thunder got here and minutes before RadarScope. In the mountains, this app doesn't work as well likely due to blockage from the mountains to the detectors. Unfortunately, All these samples were recorded after the signal had exceeded the threshold. Extended user interface Hide advertising Region Detector search Visitors online. For example, we store in browser cookies the last choosed zoom level of the dynamic map and whether you have confirmed reading the cookie policy. The sources of the signals we locate are in general lightning discharges. All in all, definitely worth it, but if you want dependable functionality probably just use the website.
It would also be cool if this app used the same map as is available on their website, instead of using Apple Maps. Our sites use browser cookies. Also, the discussion board is a good place for all questions and they will be quickly answered there. This consists of several amplifiers and a digital part for processing and forwarding of data to our central processing server. This map shows lightning strikes in real time from. The Lightning-Strikes are displayed nearly in realtime on the Map.
That is, the personal computer was continuously in operation. For the recording of the signals we have developed a special detector. There are no fees, terms and conditions, and no contracts. Not a tremendous amount , but enough to make big changes in some locations. The time stamps were transmitted to our servers by a tracker program which was continously running on a personal computer. If a station stops pooling its data, the server stops providing the access to the raw data for the user of that station.
The price for the hardware currently is less than 300 Euro. The essential difference between the two systems is the way how these systems are assembled. System Blue is also prepared for an installation in a compact housing. Since autumn 2014, we do not deliver boards for the still up-to-date System Red. It could have more features, but it does what it says it should do. The controller provided counter values from which we could compute the time stamps with an accuracy of one microsecond. Features: - Live display of Lightning-Strikes - older Strikes are displayed as colored dots on the Map - Push Alarm if Lightning-Strikes are detected in a customizable area.
BlitzortungLive is an Application for monitoring Lightning-Strikes at nearly realtime. Schools, scientific institutions, and research facilities that use our data. What data we store: We store any information you enter on our website or give us in any other way whenever you interact with us, with our web servers, or by e-mail. The receiving stations approximately record one millisecond of each signal with a sampling rate of more than 500 kHz. A lot of questions have already been answered there. At your next visit you will proceed with the same dynamic map view and you will not see again the request to read the cookies policy.
The aim of the project is to establish a low budget lightning location network with a high number of stations. Do not use our data to protect people or equipment. The sferic positions are free accessible in raw format for all users that transmit their data to our servers. At the end of 2015, approximately 30% of our active stations were of type System Green. From then, the system could be connected to a router and run without additional tracker program on a personal computer.
