Geometric Morphometrics

Geometric Morphometrics is a quantitative method in morphological analysis that belongs to the category of morphometric techniques and is distinguished by its use of landmark-based coordinate data to capture, analyze, and visualize shape variation while preserving the spatial geometry of biological structures.
