LI Lightning Flashes - MTG - 0 degreeLI Level 2 Lightning Flashes (LFL) contains LI flashes. The definition of a flash
is shared by LI and GLM; collections of groups that are correlated in space and time
within the two windows of 330 milliseconds (temporal window) and 16.5km (space window),
respectively. Even if the definition of a flash is not uniform among all lightning
location systems, the simple fact that a flash is a collection of groups/strokes correlated
in space and time somewhat mitigates the differences in the way different types of
lightning sensors interpret different lightning processes. This makes flash datasets
of different lightning location systems more comparable than group/stroke datasets.
