Tool based on the use of Geographic Information Systems (GIS) that integrates data from bird flight paths (areas where birds are present and their routes) to prevent impacts on birdlife during the planning and construction stages for new power lines, and to prioritise mitigating actions for existing lines. The project is part of an extensive program of actions carried out by Red Eléctrica regarding the environment and the conservation of biodiversity and arises from the quest for solutions to the problems arising from the interactions between birds and power transmission lines, primarily the collision of birds with power lines when in flight.
