Using toxtrack I have done trajectory analysis to track animals before. But I need to track the surface area covered by the subject as they have different surface area coverage at different state, like moving, static as well as postures. Is there any open source software to help me with that?

Md Tauhid Siddiki Tomal Image analysis software may be used to calculate the surface area of a moving animal over time. ImageJ, for example, is an open-source program that may be used to analyze still photographs or videos of the animal. The program can follow the animal's position and determine its surface area in various situations, such as moving, immobile, and varied postures. You may also utilize open-source tools such as CellProfiler or Ilastik to track and segment animals in pictures and videos.
Measuring the surface area of a moving animal over time can be challenging, but there are a few different methods that can be used to accomplish this task. Here are a few options:
It's important to note that, depending on the animal, some methods may be more appropriate than others. For example, if the animal is small and can be imaged with a microscope, Stereology or Confocal microscopy may be more suitable, while if the animal is bigger, MRI and CT may be more appropriate.
