GOES-16 Geostationary Lightning Mapper (GLM) Level 2 Satellite Data https://data.eol.ucar.edu/dataset/622.002 Summary NOAA GOES-16 Geostationary Lightning Mapper (GLM) Level 2 satellite data are included in this Lake Effect Electrification (LEE) Field Project dataset. These data were collected during the LEE project field phase. The Lightning Detection Gridded product generates fields starting from the GLM Lightning Detection Events, Groups, Groups, Flashes product. It consists of flash extent density, event density, average flash area, average group area, total energy, flash centroid density, and group centroid density. Please see the sample netCDF header file in the documentation section of this web page for a list of parameters included in this dataset. The data are stored in gzipped tar files by day.
