Advanced Synchronized Cameras help researchers monitor changes in ancient forests of Japan’s Southern Alps

WICHITA, Kan., July 10, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- AgEagle Aerial Systems Inc. (NYSE: UAVS), a leading provider of advanced drone and aerial imaging solutions, today announced the sale of a RedEdge-P Dual to Shizuoka University for researchers looking into the effect environmental factors have on Japan’s diverse Alpine forests on the country’s main island of Honshu.

“Ground observations are precise, but do have limits,� said Professor Atsuhiro Iio, professor of Agriculture, Forest Science and Bioresource Sciences at Shizuoka University in Japan. “Drone-based multispectral cameras like the MicaSense RedEdge-P Dual can effectively and easily scan large areas of forest. By augmenting our ground observations with data from this ten-band camera, we can identify tree species with unique defense mechanisms to droughts, disease and invasive fauna. Monitoring forest status with multispectral imaging allows us to better understand and predict how forests function under global warming and severe drought. This approach has broad applicability, not only to Japanese forests, but also to forest ecosystems around the world.�

By studying the diverse, deciduous forests of the Japanese Alps, professor Iio hopes to predict and counteract the effects of drought on ancient Japanese forests accustomed to high levels of rainfall. This research can benefit countries with forests suffering the impacts of invasive pests such as the European bark beetle, which have killed millions of cubic meters of spruce.

“The integration of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) and the MicaSense RedEdge-P Dual provides a powerful, time-saving tool for forestry researchers,� said Bill Irby, AgEagle CEO. “The RedEdge-P ten-band multispectral camera is ideal, as it is simple to operate and has the capacity to capture both large-scale and high-resolution spectral data. Supporting the important work of researchers who monitor forests, allowing them to better understand how the environment is impacting these fragile systems, and how the systems are adapting, is vital. We are proud that our ten-band RedEdge-P Dual camera is being used to monitor and preserve such an important subject for the planet.�

The RedEdge-P Dual is an ideal tool for environmental research, currently deployed in many biomes and habitats, including:

  • Tundra and Alpine biomes: thawing permafrost impacts wetland and alpine meadow formation, altering carbon dynamics. The dual is used to assess snowmelt patterns and track glacial retreat.
  • Temperate and Alpine forests: Critical for carbon sequestration and biodiversity, the sensor quickly detects stress and diseases
  • Coastal and Wetland Ecosystems- Coastal blue and multiple RedEdge bands analyze water vegetation in shallow water, making it ideal for wetlands, tidal zones, and coastal marshes.
  • Grasslands and Savannas are sensitive to overgrazing, desertification, and climate-driven shifts in precipitation. The Dual’s ten narrow bands assist in plant counting, species differentiation and vigour assessment, tracking Grassland degradation or restoration.
  • Agricultural Landscapes: Subtle changes in plant stress suggest nutrient deficiencies or the spread of fungal diseases like powdery mildew in vineyards
