geomorph

Geomorph is a software package for performing all stages of geometric morphometric shape analysis of 2- and 3-dimensional landmark points, as well as semilandmarks on curves and surfaces, in the R statistical computing environment. This repository is dedicated to providing beta versions between CRAN uploads.
