Based on the lightning location data of Inner Mongolia from 2014 to 2023, the spatial characteristics of lightning activity and its hazard in Inner Mongolia were studied by using spss mathematical statistics analysis method, percentile method, analytic hierarchy process and spatial analysis method in AcrGIS.The results show that the flash days shows an upward trend, the total flash and negative flash density show a downward trend, and the positive flash density shows an upward trend. Through the T test, it is significant above the 0.05 confidence level. May-September is the high incidence period of lightning, and the lightning is the most active in July. The lightning is the weakest at 7-10 a.m., and the lightning is the most active at 13-19 p.m. The trend of the average peak current of lightning is opposite to the trend of lightning activity. The peak current of positive flashes is significantly higher than that of negative flashes. From the lower quartile to the upper quartile, the ratio of positive and negative flash peak current increases from about 1.7 times to 2.0 times, and the median and average positive flashes are about 1.8 times that of negative flashes. The lightning disaster-causing risk is gradually increasing from the plain-valley-mountain area in the east-west direction of the Yinshan Mountains to the south and the north-south direction of the daxing"an mountains to the east.
