⚡ Instant situational awareness
Every payload corresponds to a single lightning strike observed by our national detection grid.
🗺️ Pinpoint accuracy
Latitude/longitude pairs point to the geodesic centroid of the strike with meter-level precision.
🤝 Action-ready context
Use the enriched attributes (current, multiplicity, distance) to decide whether to trigger claims or operational workflows.
