## Proposal
|
||||
|
||||
Very nebulous idea at the moment, but the idea would be to build a
|
||||
distributed lightning detection system, with the intended goal of having
|
||||
precision high enough to go find the aftereffects of strikes (like
|
||||
[geocaching](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geocaching)). After thinking
|
||||
of this, I found some dutch folks have done [much what I had in
|
||||
mind](http://members.home.nl/fkooiman/lightning/), so the problem is
|
||||
kind of a solved one. Still, it would be neat thing to make, and it
|
||||
doesn't appear to have a stateside equivalent yet (its sort of a public
|
||||
service project). [Here](http://www.blitzortung.org/) is live data
|
||||
coming from the central European system.
|
||||
|
||||
I've heard the government runs these, but I haven't found any place the
|
||||
data is accessible online. If that's the case (and it's fairly high res)
|
||||
my enthusiasm for this idea is dimmed a lot.
