This is an interesting idea that looks to be a good tool for following migration routes of birds
Could Doppler Images Capture More than the Weather?
When we watch the weather forecast on television, we often see images depicting current conditions produced by Doppler radar. This same system also inadvertently records migrating birds. USGS scientist Rick Sojda has been working with a Montana State University graduate student to develop artificial intelligence based algorithms to determine if birds can be digitally detected. Next fall, the group will record large flocks of geese in the Midwest, download the corresponding weather radar scenes, and further test the theory
