Germany. For an area of 357,042 km2
this corresponds to an average flash
density of 2.8 lightning discharges per
square kilometre per year. The actual
lightning density, however, depends to
a large extent on geographic conditions.
An initial overview can be
obtained from the lightning density
map contained in DIN V VDE V 0185-2.
The higher the resolution of the lightning
density map, the more accurate
the information it provides about the
actual lightning frequency in the area
under consideration. |
