Lightning and Thunderstorms maps (data) are not available for years 2017 and before.
There are many ways to access the data. Which way did you go?

I open http://en.blitzortung.org/historical_maps.php?map=12 and then I set the date. If the year is 2017 I get empty image, see the attached picture
Dear

From the link http://es.blitzortung.org/archive_data.php the raw data that can be downloaded are only those of the last year, although if you select the graphic representation in the form of a map you can see the previous ones.

Is a restriction of this download service?

Hi

I have verified by several access services to the historical data that from October 15, 2018 until the beginning of 2019, no data or maps can be downloaded. Nor are the data accessible by zone services with the data of every 10 seconds.

Can anyone report if these data have been lost (Oct 15, 2018 - January 1, 2019)?
Hello,

The data has not been lost. They weren't deleted either. There is not enough space on the server to store all the data, so they were copied to another server.

Perhaps those that are interested in that data would be willing to contribute money towards larger storage capabilities. Smile If that's the case, I suggest a new thread about that.

(I am not interested in that data.)
