toxtrac

We have hosted the application toxtrac in order to run this application in our online workstations with Wine or directly.

Quick description about toxtrac:

ToxTrac is a free Windows program optimized for tracking animals. It uses an advanced tracking algorithm that is robust; very fast; and that can handle one or several animals in one or several environments. The program provides useful statistics as output. ToxTrac can be used for fish, insects, rodents, etc.
