WILDLIFE & NATURE RISK FOR AIRPORTS
Keep wildlife off the airfield, and prove it.
KEA detects wildlife around every runway, supports configurable deterrence workflows and turns every event into one audit-ready record for safety and environmental compliance.

WHY THIS SOLUTION
From monitoring to prevention, on one record.
Most airports watch wildlife and document it after the fact, through surveys that age once they're filed. KEA closes the loop: continuous detection, configurable deterrence at the hotspots that matter, and one evidence record that serves both runway safety and environmental compliance.
Detect in real time.
Sensors, cameras and bioacoustics identify species and activity across the airfield, day and night.
Species-aware deterrence.
Configurable sound signals, grounded in species behavior and airport protocols, support rapid wildlife response while preserving operator oversight.
Runs on its own.
Units can monitor around the clock at remote airfield edges, with automated and operator-controlled response options configured for each site.
Stays effective over time.
The system learns from every encounter, so animals don't simply get used to it.
Every event becomes evidence.
Each detection and deterrence is logged automatically into a versioned, reproducible record for regulators, auditors and your board.
One data layer, two uses.
The same data that protects the runway builds the environmental inventory a master plan or impact assessment requires.
Comparable across the network.
Every airport reports on the same methodology, so operators compare sites instead of reconciling separate formats.
Aligned to aviation rules.
Built around ICAO wildlife hazard management standards and the national authorities that apply them.
Reviewed before it's reported.
Named specialists review the cases that call for judgment.
WHERE IT WORKS
Wherever wildlife meets the airfield.
Fence perimeters.
An added layer along the airfield boundary.
Gates.
Protection where a physical fence can't close the gap.
Jet bridges.
Keeping animals out of boarding areas.
Equipment and fire stations.
Preventing damage to tires, cables and vehicles.
Terminals and hangars.
Managing hotspots where passengers and staff meet wildlife.
Restricted areas.
The same detection flags people entering where they shouldn't.
HOW WE WORK TOGETHER
Start with one airport. Scale across the network.
Every engagement starts with a Discovery: where wildlife enters your airfield, what your program already covers, and what closes the gap.
Discovery
Maps hotspots and existing programs against a complete record, for one airport or a whole network.
Deployment
Installs detection and deterrence where the risk concentrates, calibrated to the species around your site.
Ongoing
Keeps the system and record current through seasons, construction and regulatory cycles.
ENTER AT ANY STAGE
One record. Start with the gap you have.
Bring an existing wildlife control program, environmental inventory or risk process, or start from zero. Every step feeds one reusable evidence record, so adding airports never means rebuilding it.
THE NETWORK
Technology on the airfield. Specialists behind it.
KEA pairs continuous detection and configurable deterrence workflows with ecologists and wildlife biologists, plus local providers who collect eDNA, camera-trap and bioacoustic data.
The system handles the runway, 24/7. Specialists handle the cases models alone cannot settle.
Every animal kept off the runway this season becomes evidence for the next audit.
