Abstract: A moving body observation method includes acquiring time-series images taken at a predetermined time interval, obtaining an estimated position of a moving body in the time-series image based on an estimated motion of the moving body, extracting an image including the estimated position of the moving body from images of the time-series images, as an extracted image, generating a template image by stacking the extracted images in such a manner that reference points of the moving body in the extracted images coincide with each other, and identifying a position of the moving body in each of the time-series images by performing template matching using the template image for at least one of the time-series images.
