The Oklahoma Lightning Mapping Array (OKLMA)provides maps of lightning channel geometry by successive
determinations of the locations of sources of VHF radio emissions from segments of discharge channels.
During the Summer of 2007 we obtained a high-definintion video image of a lightning discharge that was also
mapped by the OKLMA. We overlay and compare the two views of the same flash.
