Free lightning apps provide generalized information and often lack the operational precision that Skyview Weather offers. For example, free lightning apps use the NOAA satellite lightning feed to estimate lightning activity using a 3×3 kilometer grid. This lightning data is approximate and only captures lightning flashes that are visible from space.
Skyview Weather uses USPLN data to provide instant operational lightning notifications, ensuring users have precise lightning strike information. This is particularly useful for outdoor events and safety planning. -
The Skyview Weather app uses United States Precision Lightning Network (USPLN) data to alert users. The USPLN offers several advantages over satellite lightning feeds:
Accuracy and Precision: USPLN provides highly accurate and precise data on lightning strikes, including exact locations and times. This level of detail is considered superior to what satellite feeds can offer, and is used by operational meteorologists across the industry.
Real-Time Data: USPLN delivers near real-time lightning data, which is crucial for safety and outdoor event planning. Satellite feeds may have delays in data transmission.
Comprehensive Coverage: USPLN covers a wide area with a dense network of sensors, ensuring comprehensive detection of lightning strikes across the United States. This extensive coverage can be more reliable than the broader, less detailed coverage from satellite feeds.
Data Quality and Reliability: The data from USPLN is often validated and verified, ensuring high quality and reliability. Satellite feeds might not undergo the same rigorous quality control.
These features make USPLN a preferred choice for professionals who need precise and reliable lightning data. The Skyview Weather app delivers this operational lightning feed directly into the hands of our clients.
