Combining Radar/Lightning - Benefits
| The image below is a
magnified view of the national radar mosaic. Click on this image to
see the gridded lightning field. Click again to toggle back to the
original image. Looking at the lightning field it is obvious that
there is missing echo in the radar image. This could be
misinterpreted by the user or could cause problems for the algorithm
trying to track the convection. |
| This next image shows the
result of combining the radar and lightning fields. This is a better
representation of what is really going on in this region and also
allowed a forecast to be produced. |
