Anthropometric Calculator

Anthropometric measurements are a series of quantitative dimensions of the muscle, bone, and adipose ti
to assess the composition of the body. These measurements are used to assist with not only design optio
specific individuals but also general populations. In addition to design they can also be used to assess pot
sources of mismatch between specific individuals or populations by comparing equipment heights and dist
worker or group of workers.
This tool is a combination of a number of anthropometric databases in an attempt to provide the most com
and concise data set of anthropometric dimensions. The datasets included in this tool include Anthropome
of US Army Personnel (ANSUR I), Anthropometric Survey of US Army Personnel (ANSUR II), DINED Anth
Database, and Civilian American and European Surface Anthropometry Resource (CAESAR).
To begin using the tool, you must first determine which gender, units and type of view you wish to use.
Gender is based upon the gender of the subject at birth.
