Abstract

Most wildlife-aircraft collisions involve birds, but some species are more prone than
others to being involved in such incidents; therefore, it is necessary to identify the level of risk
inherent to each bird species, that is, species-specific risk. To address this, the Species-Specific
Impact Risk Index (ssiri) is proposed as a quantitative and standardized tool consisting of an
eight-variable multi-matrix, with each variable having three states. Additionally, a pre-existing
method is suggested to obtain the relative weight or contribution of each variable to the total
risk, and the strengths and limitations of each variable, as well as the method in general, are
discussed. The ssiri aims to be an objective and practical assessment tool for regular implementation
at most airports in Colombia, and is designed as an easily interpretable and manageable
method that only requires accessible information from field observations.
