Popis: This paper presents the integration details of an operational Atmospheric Electric Field Mill Sensor (EFM) Network for standardized and continuous operation in the region of Sao Jose dos Campos, State of Sao Paulo, Brazil, in order to collect and transmit real time data for studies of atmospheric electric field and support the development of a Lightning Warning System (LWS). Data collection equipments, including EFM sensors from different manufacturers, datalogger, telecommunication by 3G cellular modem and solar power energy subsystems and software were integrated. A set of graphs obtained by interpolating real time data collected by the integrated EFM network combined with lightning location data detected by the Brazilian Lightning Detection System (BrasilDAT) is also presented.
