Our Mission

Seeing lightning in three dimensions — in real time

For lightning activity in the Straits of Malacca, a 3D lightning observation network reveals where a discharge initiates, how it progresses, and where it terminates.

Real-time estimation of charge distribution inside thunderclouds and nowcasting information is delivered to relevant institutions — contributing to stable electric power supply and early warning for severe weather disasters.
