Hi all!
Is there a possibility of getting access to lightning datasets in other format (for several years) (rather than just getting 1 image per 1 day).
Many thanks in advance!

You have access if you are a participant once you purchase and setup a detector, currently long list depending where you are located you can get one sooner.
Low coverage areas are getting priority.
Otherwise you are limited to what is publicly available on Blitzortung and LightningMaps.
Be aware there are also rules of how the data can be used, such as being non-commercial.

Ok, so I have to become a member to get the access?! However the thing is that I already have a detector from them, how could I become a member right now?! And, is it possible to get a larger coverage? As I really need it.

You can become a participant as soon as your station starts sending signals to the BT servers. Not before.

Eric, that URL points to the main page of the forum, and not to the specific post that you had in mind.
