GOES-R PLT Washington D.C. Lightning Mapping Array (LMA) V1

The GOES-R PLT Washington D.C. Lightning Mapping Array (LMA) dataset consists of total lightning data measured from the Washington D.C. LMA (DCLMA) network during the GOES-R Post Launch Test (PLT) airborne science field campaign. The GOES-R PLT airborne science field campaign took place in support of the post-launch product validation of the Advanced Baseline Imager (ABI) and the Geostationary Lightning Mapper (GLM). The LMA measures the arrival time of radiation from a lightning discharge at multiple stations and locates the sources of radiation to produce a three-dimensional map of total lightning activity. These data files are available in compressed ASCII files and are available from April 6, 2017 through June 1, 2017.

GOES-R PLT华盛顿特区闪电映射阵列（LMA）数据集由GOES-R发射后测试（PLT）空中科学野外考察期间，华盛顿特区LMA（DCLMA）网络测量的总闪电数据组成。GOES-R PLT空中科学野外考察旨在支持高级基线成像仪（ABI）和地球同步闪电测绘仪（GLM）的发射后产品验证。LMA通过多个站点测量闪电放电辐射的到达时间，并定位辐射源，以生成总闪电活动的三维图。这些数据文件以压缩的ASCII文件形式提供，数据覆盖时间从2017年4月6日至2017年6月1日。
