From 1 January 2019 onward, this dataset provides monthly thunder hour data derived from the Geostationary Lightning Mapper (GLM) sensors aboard NOAA's GOES-16, -17, -18, and -19 satellites. It is produced by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration and offers a long-term metric for tracking lightning occurrence trends. The data covers a broad region from the Aleutian Islands and New Zealand eastward to the western tip of Africa at a 0.05° latitude/longitude resolution.
