Real-Time Lightning 3D Imaging and Forecasting Project for Sustainable
and Reliable Supply of Energy and Storm Disaster Early Warning
A SATREPS projects by UTeM, UNITEN and Kindai
Malaysia Experience Up To 90 Flashes per square kilometer per year. In addition, hundreds of thousands of people were affected by flash floods in the past two years.
This project aims to eliminate lightning-related fatalities, injuries, and property damages due to lightning strikes and flash floods in Malaysia specifically (towards smart-city), and in the world generally, by utilizing commercial solutions that are capable of forecasting lightning hazards before their occurrence.
Development of a high-resolution lightning observation network to obtain the dataset for real-time 3D imaging
Real-time lightning 3D imaging model is composed and evaluated using the lightning observation network
Social implementation products of nowcasting, alert system, and countermeasure for lightning damage are developed
