!!!ALDIS

ALDIS, Austrian Lightning Detection & Information System, run in 
co-operation with the Verbund electric power supplier and the 
Oesterreichischer Verband fuer Elektrotechnik, (OeVE, Austrian 
Electrotechnical Association). Its 8 lightning sensors set up in 
Austria each record all flashes of cloud-to-ground lightning within a 
radius of 400 km. The lightning data is then transmitted to the ALDIS 
headquarters in Vienna. Aside from electric power companies, weather 
services, the aviation industry, the operators of extended 
"lightning-sensitive" networks (Post & Telekom, Federal Austrian 
Railway, etc.), industrial businesses as well as insurance companies 
use the services of ALDIS.
