The main processing script creates one minute grids from GLM L2+ LCFA input files, which can be obtained from the CSPP Geo GRB software or from NOAA CLASS. It is recommended that all 3 20-second input files from the same minute be specified, to ensure that the gridded product captures all lightning activity from that minute. Alternatively the script can be run in "realtime" mode where, provided a single input file, it will determine if an entire minute is available and if so begin gridding.

A set of tiles can optionally be created for each Gridded GLM file. The tiles are also NetCDF4 files and designed to be compatible with AWIPS. Tiles covering geographic areas without lightning activity are omitted.

- The DQF (data quality flags) are always set to 0 in this version. Proper data quality information will be added in a future version
- In the default processing mode (not "realtime" mode), if the first 20-second file of the minute is not specified, the output file time will be offset from the nominal minute boundaries. This will be addressed in a future release, but note that it is recommended to provide all 3 20-second input files.
