What problem does it solve?
This Skill automates the extraction of precise landmark data from fossil images, a crucial step for quantitative shape analysis in paleontology, saving researchers significant manual effort and time.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Automated Landmark Extraction: Accurately identifies and extracts 64 semilandmarks from fossil images, compatible with standard geometric morphometrics software.
- Multi-Format Export: Outputs data in TPS, CSV, Excel, and JSON formats, ensuring broad compatibility with tools like MorphoJ and R's geomorph package.
- Use Case: A paleontologist studying ammonoid evolution can upload a collection of fossil images and use this Skill to automatically generate the necessary landmark data for statistical shape analysis, enabling them to quantify morphological differences across species or time periods.
Quick Start
Use the morphometric_analysis skill to extract landmarks from the image ammonoid.png.
