What is WASP2?
WASP2 stands for Wide Area Storm Probe. WASP is an analyzer
intended for monitoring lightning activity captured by a StrikeStar
Lightning locator network.
The point sources providing this data to StrikeStar are StormTracker and
LD-250 lightning
detectors manufactured by the Boltek Corporation.
How do we get this data?
Lightning strike data which is detected by different Boltek sensors in a
StrikeStar
network is sent over the Internet to a central processing server which
triangulates
this data in order to determine the approximate geographical position of
the lightning
discharge. The StrikeStar output is relayed to a companion server
application named
LDStream which in turn feeds this data over a TCP/IP based network and
serves as
a network access point for external client applications.
Capeweather.com is a participant of
the
StrikeStar program.
We send our lightning data to the StrikeStar central server continuously.
