Hello,
I am developing a non-commercial and freely accessible weather website called GermanLightning.
The website focuses on Germany and displays weather radar, DWD weather warnings, lightning activity and planned storm tracking features.
I would like to ask whether I may use Blitzortung.org lightning data for this project.
The website will be:
My goal is not simply to create another copy of the Blitzortung live map. The lightning data would be combined with weather radar, official weather warnings and storm tracking to provide additional information about thunderstorms over Germany.
I would of course follow the applicable Blitzortung.org conditions and attribution/licensing requirements.
Could you please let me know whether this project would be eligible for data access and, if so, how I can request the necessary access?
Thank you very much.
Best regards
