Control and organize the display, functioning, and storage of TPS files by applying the random scrambling scenarios in order to minimize bias in digitizing landmark locations, restoring the original order for repeated statistical analysis, creating empty files and adding keywords, etc.

tpsUtil is a utility program designed to help when working with tps files. It can randomly scramble the order of specimens to reduce bias in landmark location digitization, restore the original order, create an empty TPS file from an image file directory, add keywords and values to the TPS file variables field, combine TPS files into one, delete/reorder landmarks, remove outlines from a TPS file, and convert TPS and NTS files to NTS, M, or CSV formats. It can also split an NTS file into multiple matrices.

Software is great! I used it for my honours project investigating European Eel head morphology and had to convert many images into TPS files for landmarking and the analyses. Highly recommend to anyone who is looking to perform landmark morphometrics for research! The tool is very easy to use, with some quick and easy guides available to get the basics down. I would love to have a reference from the developer/website to put into my paper, it would make it much easier for people using the tool for research to reference the owner and developer of the tool!
