HURRICANE AND SEVERE STORM SENTINEL (HS3) WORLD WIDE LIGHTNING LOCATION NETWORK (WWLLN) STORMS V1
The World Wide Lightning Location Network (WWLLN) is a global, ground-based lightning sensor network operated by the University of Washington in Seattle. This network monitors and maps global lightning activity. WWLLN has generated quality controlled global lightning data for storms studied during the 2012-2014 Hurricane and Severe Storm Sentinel (HS3) campaign to track and analyze lightning activity.
