The role of low level topographical convergence and moisture channeling on regional lightning activity / Larry Funk, satellite meteorologist.: En57-44/84-009E-PDF

"The lightning strike network, operated by the B.C. Ministry of Forests, can detect and position cloud to ground lightning strikes. This information can be transmitted in near real time to the Pacific Weather Centre for analysis. As well, the interactive satellite analysis and display system at the Weather Centre produces automatic output of high resolution GOES imagery, complete with specialized enhancements. These two data sets were studied independently then correlated during the course of a PWC Satellite Lightning Strike project conducted during the summer of 1984."
