摘要: The invention provides a computer software means for determining physical characteristics of an unrestrained animal by enabling user to interact with one or more images the on graphical interface connected computer. Using interface, is able designate piecewise linear and circumferential measurements selected features images. program receives animal, displays designated type calibration size indicia, characteristic from adjusts based size, images, adjusted computed estimated measurement error interface.
