World’s First Multi Fusion %%AI-Powered Bird Hazard Management System%%

Awarded by iDEX DISC 11, Indian Air Force

OmniBirdX is an advanced wildlife hazard management system for airports, designed to predict, prevent, and reduce bird and animal strike risks. The platform integrates AI/ML analytics, GIS mapping, thermal drone surveys, multi-sensor fusion, and data-driven decision models to enable real-time monitoring and predictive safety planning. By moving beyond reactive mitigation, OmniBirdX supports airport authorities with proactive, data-led decision-making for flight safety and operations.

Key Highlights

Sensor Fusion

Multi-sensor fusion platform combining cameras, drones, acoustic sensors, radar, weather, and GIS data

AI-Powered Prediction

AI-driven prediction models forecasting bird movement, strike probability, and runway-specific risk

Thermal Drone Night Survey

Thermal drone surveys for night-time detection of roosting habitats and high-risk zones

GIS & Land Use Analysis

GIS and land-use analysis identifying ecological and human attractants around airfields

Decision Intelligence Model

Decision intelligence engine recommending patrol strategies, deterrent use, and operational advisories

Compliance Ready

Compliance-ready system aligned with ICAO standards, national aviation regulations, and structured Six Sigma processes

Impact

OmniBirdX has demonstrated up to a 70% reduction in wildlife strike risk, improving coordination between air traffic control and flight operations through real-time hazard alerts. The system reduces operational costs by optimizing patrols and deterrent deployment, strengthens regulatory compliance with ICAO and National Safety Policy requirements, and enables environmentally responsible wildlife management through objective, data-driven insights.
