3D-ID-Geometric Morphometric Classification of Crania for Forensic Scientists Software Best Practices

3D-ID-Geometric Morphometric Classification of Crania for Forensic Scientists Software Best Practices

This webinar originally occurred on August 16, 2018
Duration: 1 hour

Overview

Attendees will be introduced to the new features of the new software release, how to maximize results, and how to best interpret results for forensic casework application.

The latest version of 3D-ID provides tools to address the global humanitarian crisis of mass migration of individuals escaping wars, starvation, and displacement within and outside our borders by the inclusion of West African (n=93), East African (n=36), Nigerian (n=30), Syrian (n=43), Colombian (n=71) reference samples. The reference population included in the software totals 2,372 individuals from around the world. Another new feature added to the software to facilitate ease of use is that the practitioner can now digitize directly into the software without having to format the coordinate data. In this webinar, attendees will be introduced to the new features of the new software release, how to maximize results, and how to best interpret results for forensic casework application.
