Hello everyone,
I'm Patrick from France and I've made an interactive map of Blitzortung Stations active for Europe.
https://umap.openstreetmap.fr/en/map/sta....815/3.450
With this link you have the map, on the map each country has its color, a click on a station opens a popup with the station number and statistics in blue, a click on statistics opens the state web page of the station.
To view the list of countries and Stations, click on Browse Data at the bottom or on the left panel. This map is updated manually, if you are a new active station and you are not on the map leave me a private message.
I wish you a happy navigation in all colors.


Best regards

Patrick

Station: 3059

If I purchase the BLUE SYSTEM and join blitzortung.org, what would be the lightning detection accuracy within a 10 km radius from the location where the device is installed? I imagine that the more detectors there are near the desired measurement location, the higher the accuracy will be.

I continually monitor BLITZORTUNG.ORG because lightning in Utah can pop up very strong and very quickly in the summer. My question is: are there any hams that are involved with this system to receive and report lightning strikes, anywhere in the world. Is the board difficult to populate, and does it require any surface mount components? What about the receiving antenna...I see a lot of variations and wonder which type has shown the best success. My QTH is only two miles west of the Wasatch Front...part of the Rocky Mountains. I'm at 4400 feet and the mountains go to about 7500 feet, so there is the possibility that I might not be able to "see" lightning to the east of me. Thanks for any advice or ideas.

I am running System BLUE 19.3 with firmware 10.0b3 in North America in Rochester, Minnesota, U.S.A.

What is the top performing GPS Antenna/Unit currently available to interface with the Blitzortung servers?

I currently have a Mediatek GPS antenna with a male connector. See attachment.

I am willing to "upgrade" if it will be worthwhile.

Also what are optimal settings:  for satellite types (GPS, GLONASS, etc) & baud rate others have used?

Thank you.

   

Hello

I am looking to buy a second station. Any system.

Let me know if you have one

Hey everyone,

I have one more question, this time about lightning data. Is it possible to get access to the data in a .txt or a .csv (or a similar extension)?

Thank you!

Hi everyone,

I am doing an analysis of lightning and was wondering whether there is some "relatively" exact location of the lightning available (such as the latitude and longitude) or if I need to estimate this from the map. (I know the location is not exact but does Blitzortung provide at least an estimate?)

Thank you very much!

I would like to buy a Blue system, but is it even possible to buy it? Or is it possible to do System Red at home?

Hi,
    I updated my password for the forum ok.
However, I am unable to log in to the user area, my forum username and password does not work.
I tried sending an email to info@blitzortung.org but my email bounced back.
I have my System Blue up and running and would like to put it on the network.

Thank you,
Warren

Hello,
Could you please either have the website center on the user's location on startup (if a location is in the URL) or provide a one-click button to detect and center the user's position?
This would make the site much more useful
