Vaisala Thunderstorm Total Lightning Sensor LS8000
The LS8000 is one of two principal sensor configurations
offered in the Vaisala Thunderstorm Information System. This sensor
configuration integrates the two most effective lightning detection
technologies:
- Very high frequency (VHF) interferometry
- Low frequency (LF) combined magnetic direction finding and
time-of-arrival VHF interferometry technology provides extremely high
performance in detection of cloud lightning. LF combined magnetic direction
finding and time-of-arrival technology offers the highest detection efficiency
and most accurate location for cloud-to-ground lightning
strokes.
