Data for Research or Links to Similar Research - joburt - 2024-03-07

Hi all, 

I'm not sure if I am correct in my understanding, but is raw data access available to contributors or certain research projects? 

Wondering if our research would be applicable or if it has be done: we are a team in Canada hoping to stop/extinguish lightning caused fires. Hoping to create lightning ignition risk maps by combining observed lightning strikes and observed fires/burned area.

Thanks in advance,

Raw data access for contributors depends on the platform. For lightning strikes and fire data, consider:
- NOAA/NLDN (for lightning data),
- NASA EOSDIS (global fire data),
- CWFIS (Canadian fire data),
- ES (satellite imagery).

Check their websites for research partnerships or data access programs.
