“A system which perfectly detects and records every single lightning stroke, with all its characteristics – this objective is definitive for nowcast” – Prof. Hans-Dieter Betz, inventor of LINET nowcast has developed an extraordinarily efficient and precise lightning detection system. As a leader in quality nowcast delivers its data to national weather services, energy suppliers, insurance companies and many more sectors with highly reliable and comprehensive lightning data. The system stems from the long-standing research work carried out by Prof. Hans-Dieter Betz at the Ludwig-Maximilians-University in Munich. In the year 2002, nowcast GmbH was founded for the purpose of marketing this technology. Since then, the lightning-detection system has been successfully offered all over the world under the brand name of LINET (Lightning Detection Network). The central spheres of activity of nowcast GmbH comprise research and development in the field of lightning-detection, as well as the operation and sale of the lightning-detection system LINET and the meteorological uses derived from it and storm data.
