Hey Deb
I am trying to get my head around a concise definition but in essence its having a group of

It's similar in method to Drake & Klingenberg's on dog skull shapes but I am looking into the use of the results in a different way to create identification databases. Like what is used on fingerprints for identification purposes but applying it to bones.
I hope that makes sense!
Cheers
Sheryl
