Deployment of beacons

To deploy ICARUS beacons on migratory birds, we organize scientific expeditions to the breeding or wintering sites of target species. Each time, it is a matter of obtaining administrative authorizations to capture protected species, to deploy GPS beacons and coded rings, and to organize all the logistics of access to sites that are sometimes remote, often uninhabited. During all these stages, the help of our scientific and operational partners is invaluable.
