GOES-16 Geostationary Lightning Mapper (GLM) Lightning Detection Gridded
Product Data
https://data.eol.ucar.edu/dataset/553.004

Summary
This data set contains the lightning detection gridded product data from the
GOES-16 satellite Geostationary Lightning Mapper (GLM) during the period of
RELAMPAGO operations. Included are flash/group extent density, flash/group
centroid density, event density, average flash area, and total energy. The
data are in NetCDF files packed into daily tar files.
