Abstract: A bird deterrent system includes (i) measurement of bird habituation to activation of deterrent devices and (ii) reduction of habituation through increased selectivity in activating deterrents only for birds posing a threat to or threatened by a protected area, and in particular, those within threat altitudes. The bird deterrent system further provides (iii) analytical data in support of safety management systems, risk management, etc., and (iv) integrated, wide-area radar coverage with multiple virtual intrusion zones providing multiple lines of defense around and over very large protected areas.
