Global Hydrology Resource Center (GHRC) DAAC

The GHRC DAAC provides both historical and current Earth Science data, information, and products from satellite, airborne, and surface-based instruments. The GHRC acquires basic data streams and produces derived products from many of those instruments. The data center specializes in data involving the hydrological cycle, severe weather interactions, lightning, and convective processes.

The Lightning Imaging Sensor (LIS)The Lightning Imaging Sensor (LIS) is a space-based lightning sensor aboard the EOS TRMM satellite. The LIS instrument records the time of occurrence of a lightning event, measures the radiant energy and estimates the location during both day and night conditions with high detection efficiency.
