Theropod data for a computer science study.
Matthew_Dino_Searcher posted a topic in Questions & Answers
Hello I am working on my PhD in computer science and am working on collecting data for my thesis. I have been looking for a lot of data on theropod measurements like; teeth size, body mass, femur and tibia, length width, and other measurements (the more the better). I would like to collect samples from a few theropods like the T-Rex, Raptors, ect... and to have multiple skeleton for each. I need to have their measurement for my data points. I know that there are some journals that give detailed measurement for each fossil they find but I do not know how to search for them as each search yields vary results. Is there a certain key word that I should use to get the measurements for each fossil? I have been here https://paleobiodb.org/#/ but it does not look like the information that I need. Any help on this will be appreciated. -
Hey Trilobase users I've spent more than two solid months cateloguing my fossil collection and putting all the information into Trilobase. I like this program alot and it has helped quite a bit. Still alot of work! Ha ha. One issue I've encountered, however, is that the program presently does not include the geologic formation when printing labels. Has anyone seen this problem and have the computer programing experience to design a solution. I do not have any experience in programing. Obviously, including the geologic formation on a label for a fossil catelogue is important. I have been in touch with Danny regarding this issue and he provided programing language to work on a solution, but it is way over my head. If anyone has been able to address this issue, please let me know. Thanks
