A WEATHER VISUALIZATION AND NOWCASTING SYSTEM BASED ON TOTAL LIGHTNING DETECTION

Product catalog summary
Overview
PulseRad is a cost-effective, maintenance-free weather visualization and nowcasting system based on total lightning detection. It is designed to provide radar-like coverage in areas where traditional radar is incomplete or non-existent, particularly benefiting developing countries with limited infrastructure.
Key Features
  • Earth Networks Total Lightning Network® (ENTLN): The world's largest lightning network, measuring both in-cloud and cloud-to-ground lightning, establishing accurate correlations with radar reflectivity.
  • Interactive Storm Maps: Proxy radar maps that show convective weather, adjustable to global climate zones.
  • Dangerous Storm Indicator: Highlights potential for dangerous storms, available in areas with limited traditional radar coverage.
  • Flood and Drought Assessment Indicator: Real-time monitoring for potential flooding and drought, providing a complete picture of rainfall rates and accumulated precipitation.
  • Flexible System Design: Configurable lightning sensors scalable to any geography, offering extended range coverage and reduced operational complexity.
Benefits
  • Provides extended radar coverage and advanced warning capabilities, enabling earlier alerts and prolonged reaction times.
  • Offers a low-cost solution for regions lacking the financial and technical resources for traditional radar systems.
  • Minimal operational requirements and costs, making it suitable for less developed regions.

A WEATHER VISUALIZATION AND NOWCASTING SYSTEM BASED ON TOTAL LIGHTNING DETECTION-1

A WEATHER VISUALIZATION AND NOWCASTING SYSTEM BASED ON TOTAL LIGHTNING DETECTION Radar is an invaluable tool in weather forecasting, alerting and research; however, gaps in coverage exist due to geographic limitations of the technology. Forget what you’ve heard about radar. No matter how remote your locations are, our PulseRad radar alternative will find you and give you an interactive map of convective weather. We’re changing up the radar game, especially for areas of the world that lack the financial and technical resources to deploy, operate and maintain traditional radar. EXTENDED RADAR COVERAGE Access to radar coverage where traditional radar coverage is incomplete or non-existent INTERACTIVE MAPS Convective weather, and future non-convective weather forecasting with accuracy and reliability ADVANCED WARNING AND NOWCASTING Up to the minute proxy radar coverage enables earlier alerts and prolonged reaction time reducing vulnerability of less developed regions MAINTENANCE FREE Minimal operational requirements and costs COST EFFECTIVE Low cost solution for developing countries with growing economies that lack the infrastructure to maintain traditional radar
