Hello everyone,
I am curious if placing the Blitzortung device in a dense urban area (many tall buildings, dense electrical system, strong interference) has a significant impact on the accuracy or sensitivity of lightning detection. Does the urban environment cause greater errors than placing the device in a rural or suburban area?
Has anyone on the forum tried to compare data between these two environments?
