Description:
This value assessment documents societal and economic benefits that can be attributed to a Geostationary Lightning Mapper (GLM) to advise future satellite architecture decisions. The report examines the use-inspired science and public benefits of space-based lightning measurements that address NESDIS mission objectives for geostationary earth and extended orbit (GEO-XO) observations. We describe operational use cases to illustrate GLM value being realized through the actions of various decision makers, and identify well documented benefit pools where the GLM adds value.
