I don't have a copy of the software they used but I did see it years ago. It was a rather tedious set of equations written for use in SAS IML. It took the x,y coordinates observed in a series of digital images taken at different angles and estimated the 3D coordinates of the landmarks from that information. Perhaps someone from his former lab might have a copy - check first with Anna Loy.

Hi, Morphometricians

I work with vampire bat in Brazil and I will study with geometric
morphometrics 3D of skull. Vampire bat is a little bat (skull ~ 2.5cm
of
lengh). I am a beginner in the 'world of geometric morphometrics' and
this mailing list.

Then, in article THREE-DIMENSIONAL GEOMETRIC MORPHOMETRICS OF THE
AFRTCAN GENUS LUPHUROMYS (RODENTA MURIDAE). MARCO CORTI et al 2000 ,
they used a simple camera to do it. And I don't have a expensive
equipament e.g. 'Microscribe' yet.

I would like to know if there is a implemented the algorithm for
geometric morphometrics 3D de Fadda etal, 1997 for software R...

In addition, I would like to know too about the "OFG digitising hoard"
described in this paper. What is it?

thanks

best regards
