Abstract
A total-sky lightning event observation system and method may include a photographing device, a housing, a temperature control device, a light shielding device, a control module, a power supply module, a corona current sensor, a data acquisition device, a GPS antenna, a GPS timing module and a processing unit. The photographing device can capture total-sky digital images and transmit the images directly to the processing unit. The processing unit consecutively acquire corona current via the data acquisition device and judges whether there exists thunderstorm activity within the observed range; if there exists thunderstorm activity, the light shielding device is opened so as to enter a lightning observation mode, and the light shielding device is closed after the observation is finished so as to protect the photographing device in non-thunderstorm weather.
