A near real-time #bolide detection software suite ingests data from the Geostationary Lightning Mapper (GLM) instrument onboard the Geostationary Operational Environmental Satellites (GOES) and applies anomaly detection algorithms to distinguish between bolide events and the many lightning detections GLM was originally designed to characterize: https://www.usu.edu/today/story/space-dynamics-lab-shares-open-source-software-to-detect-potentially-dangerous-meteors - the GLM sensor takes 500 images of Earth every second, and StarFall analyzes the meteors’ light curves, or changes in brightness over time, as they pass through the atmosphere.
