The shifting climate is bringing increasingly severe weather events, so it’s time to safeguard your business against the potential damage lightning can cause.
Our Total Lightning Network is the intelligent lightning solution that goes above and beyond to alert lightning and increase your lead time before the storm hits.
We utilise a vast global sensor network, created with our partner Earth Networks. Over 1200 sensors in 40+ countries provide a worldwide view of both intra-cloud (IC) and cloud-to-ground (CG) lightning strikes, enabling businesses to plan and respond with the most precise insight available. Our system can detect and calculate strike locations with incredible accuracy, offering real-time lightning mapping for a comprehensive view of storm activity.
Offering unsurpassed accuracy, with real-time sensing to <200m, we integrate with your existing systems to keep your enterprise operating within your defined severe weather thresholds. Our technology also helps monitor radiation from electrical discharges and ensures every lightning flash is accounted for.
Leave nothing to chance. Be confident working outdoors with the most sophisticated lightning alerting system, delivering intelligence to any device across your business network. Whether you need a personal lightning alerting tool for individual safety or enterprise-wide monitoring, our solution is designed to emit timely alerts and protect your operations.
The Total Lightning Network is a high-precision lightning alerting solution used to determine the threat of severe storm damage to your business. The highest density of sensors across Australia and the globe give you the edge.
Real-time monitoring and alerting enhance safety outcomes whilst also preventing costly shutdowns caused by inaccurate sensor data. Our system provides early warning of approaching storms by tracking lightning activity, alerting you with the positive charge buildup that often precedes a strike, making it easier to detect potential threats.
You will be supported by the dedicated DTN APAC team, who are driven to make your operational decisions easier. With our advanced technology, you’ll even know a storm is coming before you hear the thunder.
Using real-time lightning data, severe weather alerts are issued via our Weatherguard app to any device across your business, allowing everyone to plan and respond quickly.
Stormtracker, our Geographic Information System (GIS), plots live lightning strikes to enhance your immediate spatial visualisation of storms and calculate the distance to nearby strikes for improved situational awareness.
The Total Lightning Network is meticulously maintained, ensuring efficiency and accuracy, with an ability to detect lightning strikes reliably and a system uptime of 99.9%.
The Total Lightning Network is a key consideration across many industries. If your business or supply chain operates out in the open or in the air, your company could be at risk.
Visualise approaching storms as our customisable GIS system, Stormtracker, plots strike data across your site and infrastructure. This enables enhanced understanding of the potential risk inherent in each severe weather system and how storms produce hazardous conditions. Integrated satellite technology improves tracking accuracy, while real-time weather forecasts provide deeper insights into developing thunderstorm activity and potential disruptions.
Personal push notifications give users real-time severe weather and lightning alerts, based on their phone’s GPS position, enhancing their awareness of personal risk. Users can see lightning as it happens and track associated precipitation, ensuring more informed decision-making.
Lightning strike history is archived for over five years, enabling you to extract the reportable data required for risk assessments or insurance claims, with advanced calculation tools ensuring precise analysis.
The 2025-26 tropical cyclone season has begun with abnormally warm oceans surrounding northern Australia, signalling an increased risk for severe tropical cyclones in the coming months. The Australian tropical cyclone season runs from November 1 to April 30. During this six-month period, there are usually about 9 to 10 tropical cyclones in the Australian region, […]
A barrage of thunderstorms battered large areas of eastern and northern Australia over the past week, producing close to 8 million lightning pulses across the country and more than 4 million over Queensland alone. DTN’s Total Lightning Network (TLN) detected around 7.79 million lightning pulses above Australia last week. This lightning was observed over every […]
Sydney and Brisbane just had their warmest October on record, despite a relatively cool end to the month. A surge of cold air caused temperatures to plummet in eastern Australia earlier this week. In Brisbane, the temperature only reached 22.2°C on Tuesday, while Sydney’s maximums remained below 18°C on both Tuesday and Wednesday. These chilly […]
The Australian region is primed for severe tropical cyclones this season, despite an ongoing trend of reduced tropical cyclone activity over Australian waters in recent decades. Australia’s tropical cyclone season officially runs from the start of November to the end of April. During this six-month period, the Australian region usually sees around 9 to 10 […]
