GLM Events and Flashes Data
Listed in NASA Earthdata CMR and NASA Data Portal — shown once because both records carry DOI 10.5067/glm/data101
The GLM Events and Flashes Data consist of the size and number of lightning flashes and events.
Description
The data were collected from the Geostationary Lightning Mapper (GLM) instrument on the GOES-16 and GOES-17 satellites and are available as L1b events (raw) and L2 flashes (processed). They are available from March 15, 2021, through March 18, 2021, in netCDF-4 and HDF-5 formats.
