Commemorating my survival - charlieforward9@gmail.com - 2025-06-29
I was on a VERY remote bike ride, when I got stuck in a lightning field for about an hour and had a bolt strike no more than 200m away from me - catching the thing on on video.
For proof:
My Coords: 29°55'38.9"N 83°04'23.6"W
Approx DateTime: 2025-06-27T00:16:00Z
Having gone through such a vulnerable moment, in the presence of over 100 lightning all within eyesight of me, I would like to create a short visualization of my time through the region to bring awareness to the gravity of the situation and share the story with more immersability.
I am also a frontend & GIS developer, and very avid contributor to open source projects, as seen through my Github charlieforward9.
I would not have a problem setting up a system to contribute, but I am living on a month to month lease until I get married next year and would like to make that larger commitment to a community project when my living situation has stabilized.
If so kind to, would anyone mind sending me the raw dataset of lightning strikes between:
(+/- 2 hrs or)
2025-06-26T22:00:00Z
2025-06-27T02:00:00Z
and
(+/- 1° or)
North: 30.5
South: 29.5
West: -84
East: -82
For Video Proof, please email me, its not letting me send videos in here: charlesrichardsonusa@gmail.com
