Wildlife Damage Prevention Cloud

Animal Portal

Comprehensive cloud platform for wildlife damage prevention, integrated with 'LoggLaw G Series' GPS collars

What is Animal Portal?

Animal Portal is a cloud-based wildlife tracking and management platform operated by Biologging Solutions Inc., a Kyoto University-affiliated biologging equipment manufacturer. It integrates with LoggLaw GPS collars and is used by municipalities, universities, and research institutions.

Animal Portal belongs to the category of services often referred to in the field as a wildlife management platform, wildlife damage management cloud, human-wildlife conflict management software, or GPS collar management cloud. It integrates with the LoggLaw G series of GPS collars to unify positioning data, proximity alerts, capture reports, and sighting information from deployed individuals.

A Look Inside the Portal

View GPS collar data on an interactive map in real time. Check current location, movement tracks, and home ranges from both desktop and mobile, with no setup required.

Movement tracks overlaid on the map. Use date filters to revisit past routes.

Key Features

International Patent Pending

An international patent application is pending for technology related to Animal Portal.

GPS Movement Visualization

View current location, movement trajectory, and home range of tracked animals as real-time heatmaps. Accessible from PC or smartphone anytime.

Proximity Alert Function

Register your home or fields to receive email alerts when animals approach. Three levels: Caution (1,000m), Warning (600m), and Emergency (300m).

Sighting Information Sharing

Post and aggregate date, location, traces, damage status, and photos from the field. Overlay with GPS data on the map.

Advanced Map Display

Support for GSI standard maps, satellite/aerial imagery (2D/3D), and topographic maps (2D/3D). Accurate situational awareness matching the terrain.

Team Collaboration

Share information in real time among local stakeholders. Digitize paper-based reporting for efficient collaboration.

Support for Various Wildlife

Compatible with a wide range of animals including monkeys, bears, deer, wild boar, raccoons, and cormorants.

Smartphone Compatible

Post sighting information from the field via smartphone. Check GPS data while on the go.

Long-Term Operation

Works with the LoggLaw G Series. Solar panel equipped for years of continuous operation.

Use Cases

Bear & Monkey Monitoring

Detect animals approaching settlements early for resident alerts and deterrence. Prevent damage before it occurs.

Identifying Home Ranges

Use heatmaps to identify areas of frequent animal activity. Optimize trap placement and buffer zone development.

Digitizing Damage Reports

Digitize paper-based sighting and damage reports for real-time community-wide sharing. Enable rapid response.

Community-Wide Countermeasures

Municipalities, experts, farmers, and residents share information on one platform. Drive effective regional measures.

Field-Operation Support

Beyond visualizing location data, Animal Portal digitizes the entire on-the-ground workflow — capture, deterrence, and report preparation.

Capture Report Management

Record capture date, location, sex, age class, and method with photos. Aggregate through an approval workflow and export to PDF / Word.

Deterrence Schedule & Ranking

Schedule and manage community deterrence activities. A points-based ranking encourages continued resident participation.

Automated Reports

Auto-generate monthly, quarterly, and annual reports with statistical charts — streamlining materials for review meetings and administrative reporting.
