UrsiQ Mark III
A new dimension
in wildlife intelligence.
From an AI-enabled camera to a fully integrated wildlife monitoring platform: a distributed network of intelligent, remotely managed sensing systems working together as one.
ONE SYSTEM.
MANY DIMENSIONS.
MANY DIMENSIONS.
UrsiQ Mark III carries UrsiQ further in its evolution from an AI-enabled camera into a fully integrated wildlife monitoring platform: a distributed network of intelligent, remotely managed sensing systems working together as one.
Each generation of UrsiQ has expanded the scale at which that intelligence can work.
Our ability to incorporate advances in image processing and AI from the United States supports UrsiQ’s continuing development, with improvements informed by life in Hokkaido and rural Alaska.
The evolution of UrsiQ
The progression is much like the evolution from a solo musician, to an ensemble, to an entire orchestra—many individual components, each performing its own role, but coordinated as one.
01
The conductor:
UrsiQ Core.
Playing the role of conductor is UrsiQ Core, a dedicated platform that coordinates field equipment, manages observations, applies verification and notification policies, maintains equipment and service records, and presents results directly to customers using an intuitive, streamlined interface.
Mark III brings more of the monitoring experience into one purpose-built platform, making observations, alerts and ongoing support easier to manage with greater reliability, speed and flexibility.

02
Managed remotely.
Optimized for your site.
Mark III introduces extensive remote management and configurability throughout the field network. System behavior can be monitored and adjusted centrally, down to settings for individual cameras, allowing UrsiQ installations to be optimized for the unique conditions at each site without requiring routine physical access.
Mark III also brings improvements to IntelliSense, supporting useful observation at each monitoring site.
Each camera’s operation can be optimized for its location and monitoring priorities, helping customers get useful information from the views that matter.
03
Not just what happened.
How it happened.
Best of all, Mark III adds a new dimension to wildlife observation: concurrent still-image and video capture, processing and analysis.
This addition allows the system to see not only what’s present at a moment in time, but also what happens over time. Mark III also incorporates data from additional leading-edge sensors, using UrsiQ’s proprietary approach to bring visual and sensor evidence together for a more informed assessment.
60,000+image samples analyzed per day by a typical four-camera installation
96camera-hours of video generated every day
24 / 365persistent observation, day after day
Still images provide detailed visual evidence; video adds movement, gait, changing viewpoints, behavior, and features that may only become visible as an animal moves.
04
From isolated cameras
to connected sensing.
Connected sensing adds yet another dimension, allowing multiple components to operate as parts of a coordinated whole rather than as isolated cameras.
UrsiQ brings those observations together to help customers understand what is happening across their sites. Meaningful encounters arrive with clear evidence and timely information, so customers can focus on what needs attention and decide how to respond.
05
Evidence that
keeps its history.
Importantly, greater automation doesn’t mean sacrificing transparency or accountability. Mark III is designed for complete traceability, from initial detection through final alert.
Each significant observation keeps its supporting evidence and history, including when and where it was captured, what was identified, and whether and when alerts were issued. Customers can return to the imagery and video to review the encounter in context.
This creates an auditable chain from the original field observation to the information ultimately presented to the customer—particularly important when UrsiQ is being used to support public-safety decisions.
06
Complex underneath.
Simple by design.
These enhanced analytical and operational capabilities combine to make possible a new level of simplicity for the user. UrsiQ handles the assessment and organization of observations, so customers can focus on wildlife information and the decisions it supports.
A single UrsiQ login provides access to an intuitive dashboard that distills the system’s complex operation into the information customers need: system health and current camera views; a history of identified wildlife observations and bear alerts; an inventory of installed equipment; and a detailed service history.

The defining advance of Mark III
More dimensions.
One coherent picture.
Behind that simplicity lies the defining advance of Mark III: more dimensions of information working together to create a more complete understanding of what's happening in the field.
Still images × video × additional sensors
Individual cameras × connected installations
Momentary observations × change over time
UrsiQ’s proprietary approach weaves these visual and sensor dimensions together to create a single, coherent stream of actionable intelligence. It does so continuously, 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, even in power-constrained remote environments, with a level of persistence, consistency, and precision that would be impossible to reproduce through manual monitoring.
