How are lightning strikes and lightning distance calculated?

- How does the WH57 do it?
- How does the Ecowitt Gateway Driver do it?

Lightning distance and lightning strike count aren't independent values 
when you don't look at the events individually, but over a observation 
period:

- WH57 has an Interval of 79 seconds. Within 79 seconds many lightning 
events can occur. When the Sensors emits a new value, is the distance 
weighted? If not, any further calculations are pointless anyway. (Maybe 
Rainer Lang knows the answer or knows someone who knows the answer)
- weewx has an archive_interval, does the driver weight the distance/count 
or is the value for the interval just the average of the individual 
distance values?
