AboutAbout the lab
Measuring from the sky to understand ecosystems and the environment
The Oki Lab studies how to use satellites and drones to measure ecosystems and the environment over wide areas.
The lab works on a method for estimating deer numbers in the Ozegahara wetland and a method for observing pecan orchards in the United States by drone.
In its deer research, the lab is also developing technology that uses AI to distinguish deer calls and study how deer actually behave.
Key terms
- Remote sensing
- A technology for observing objects in distant places from satellites, aircraft, drones, and the like
- Thermal infrared camera
- A camera that captures the heat (infrared radiation) emitted by objects. Even on a dark night, it can show animals by their body heat

Specializing in measurement engineering and remote sensing, the lab studies methods for measuring ecosystems and the environment over wide areas. It analyzes data collected by drones, satellites, and microphones, using AI among other tools.
*Illustrative imageObserving Pecan Orchards by Drone
This project aims to revitalize Japanese agriculture and regional communities through pecan nuts. In collaboration with the Oishi Lab, the lab is studying a method for repeatedly observing pecan orchards in Arizona, USA, by drone.
*Illustrative imageEstimating the Number of Deer in Oze
In the Ozegahara wetland, there is concern about damage to vegetation caused by deer. The lab is developing a method for estimating deer distribution from their calls, and a method for counting deer at night using a thermal infrared camera mounted on a drone.
