Algorithmic System for Identifying Bird Radio-Echo and Plotting Radar Ornithological Charts

The territory of Israel is a route for major bird migration from Europe and partially from certain areas in Asia and Africa and back. During the period of intensive migration, the average density of birds may reach over 500 birds per a square kilometer of the air. These figures alongside with the fact the air over the country is saturated with aircraft makes it an urgent task to find solutions for prevention of disasters caused by aircraft/bird collisions. In the present paper, a new algorithm is proposed aimed at identifying bird radar echoes against the background of other reflectors.
