Etymology: < morpho- comb. form + -metry comb. form. Compare morphometrical adj.R. G. Mayne gives a Latin form morphometria (see quot. 1857).

The process of measuring the shape and dimensions of landforms, living organisms, or other objects; (also) the shape and dimensions of an object so measured.
