Act faster. Stay safer. AEM’s Dangerous Thunderstorm Alerts (DTAs) are the industry’s fastest, most advanced severe weather alerts—powered by our global lightning detection network.
Alerts are delivered up to 50% faster than traditional methods.
Provides up to 45 minutes of advanced warning for severe storms.
Automated, location-specific alerts delivered worldwide.
patented technology
Dangerous Thunderstorm Alerts are automatically generated based on real-time lightning flash rates and cell tracking from the Earth Networks Total Lightning Network®. Our patented algorithms offer up to 45 minutes of lead time—helping emergency managers, public safety agencies, and critical operations stay one step ahead.
TRUSTED predictions
Total lightning (both IC and CG) is the earliest and most reliable indicator of a storm’s severity. Unlike conventional alerts that rely heavily on radar or delayed visual confirmations, Dangerous Thunderstorm Alerts use sophisticated algorithms to detect dangerous conditions sooner—especially critical for fast-forming cells.
DTAs are effective for detecting storms with potential for heavy rain, hail, strong winds, tornadoes, and microbursts.
DTAs are generated by tracking lightning cells using clustering algorithms. Alerts are triggered when lightning rates exceed set thresholds.
DTAs are integrated into AEM Elements 360 and Sferic Maps, offering flexible options for real-time visualization and alert delivery.
With sensors in 100+ countries, we provide the world’s most precise lightning network – measuring within 100m of your location.
AEM Elements 360 is a multi-hazard weather intelligence solution and the cornerstone of the Elements Resiliency Platform.
The ultimate severe weather visualization, decision support, and alerting tool, with a vast library of weather observation layers.
Make sure everyone knows lightning is on the way with our automated outdoor warning siren.
