Abstract :
In order to gain insights for the measurement data from a newly installed proximal on-line lightning monitoring system (OLMS), a dipole model of the lightning channel was used to generate the induced EM field, which was then allowed to interact with major structures at a space launch site via a field scattering/coupling analysis. The analysis based on remote sensing data makes it possible to compare OLMS data with derived system responses from the legacy remote sensing system data
