Dear Chris,
once you've digitized landmarks using TPSdig, you can easily import your
file in PAST (freeware, check in the SUNY morphometrics website) and get
a matrix of all possible interlandmark distances.
Also Morpheus does it. You just need to write a simple batch file
telling the software which are the pairs of landmarks you're interested.
If you want all of them, PAST is probably the easiest solution.
For areas, I'd try ImageJ but you might be able to do it with Morpheus
too (check with Dennis).
Good luck
Andrea
I'm looking for free software for a PC that can take a digital
photograph of a butterfly wing, allow me to select different points
on the wing, as well as a calibrated length, then will calculate the
distance among the points as I choose. Hopefully this would be saved
in some sort of tab delimited format.
I've found several programs on the web that allow me to calibrate a length and
perform a distance measure, but on a line by line basis.
What I really want is to be able to put 4 points on an image,
calibrate the length on the image, and have the program give me back
distances among the points, and perhaps even area among the
points. I have many wing photos to go through.
Thanks for any suggestions/help and please reply directly to me
Chris
