Raw landmark coordinates

These data are raw geometric morphometric landmark coordinates generated from photographs of carapaces of the Eastern Box Turtle (Terrapene carolina) in dorsal, lateral, and posterior views. Landmarks were generated in TPSDig and TPSDig2 (J. Rohlf, http://life.bio.sunysb.edu/ee/rohlf/software.html). The photographs used to digitize landmarks are included as a separate dataset within this project. <br><br>They were generated for the M.S. Thesis "The Eastern Box Turtle (Terrapene carolina) in space and time" and the manuscript "Delineating modern variation from extinct morphology within and between species in the fossil record using shell variation in the Eastern Box Turtle (<i>Terrapene carolina</i>)", both by N.S. Vitek. <br>In these TPS files, semilandmark curves have already been appended to landmarks and the resulting overlapping landmarks have already been deleted. Landmarks have not yet been superimposed and aligned in this file. Symmetrical views (dorsal, posterior) still contain both symmetrical halves. <br>For the aligned version of these landmarks that were used in the analysis, please see the dataset of aligned coordinates and metadata in this project.

本数据集为通过东部箱龟（*Terrapene carolina*）甲壳的背视、侧视及后视照片生成的原始几何形态测量学地标坐标。地标点通过TPSDig与TPSDig2软件（J. Rohlf，http://life.bio.sunysb.edu/ee/rohlf/software.html）生成。用于地标点数字化的照片已作为本项目内的独立数据集收录。

本数据集由N.S. Vitek完成的硕士论文《时空中的东部箱龟（*Terrapene carolina*）》以及手稿《利用东部箱龟（*Terrapene carolina*）的壳部形态差异划分化石记录中物种内外及物种间的现代变异与灭绝形态差异》生成。
在这些TPS文件中，半地标曲线已被追加至地标点集合，且生成的重叠地标点已被移除。本文件中的地标点尚未经过叠加对齐处理，对称视图（背视、后视）仍保留对称的两侧结构。
如需获取本分析中使用的对齐后地标点版本，请查阅本项目内的对齐坐标与元数据集。
