If using procGPA() in R with the default options then it carries
out Generalized Procrustes Analysis with translation, rotation
and scaling. The registered configurations are scaled relatively
to each other, but the overall size is arbitrary.

If you want to retain the original sizes then use procGPA() with option
scale=FALSE.

see help(procGPA) for full details.

To check on the centroid size of a configuration X you can use

centroid.size(X)

Hi,

I am using procGPA module in R for 3D landmark analysis. Does anyone
know of its internal workings of this code? The output for the rotated
data is in the original units. After the rotation, scaling and
alignment, does it scale it back using the centroid sizes?

Also, is there any program out there which would do the outline analysis
on a 3D surface model?

Thanks,
M
