Abstract
O_LITechnological advances in three-dimensional imaging techniques have opened the door to advanced morphological analyses and habitat mapping for biologists and ecologists. C_LIO_LIAt the same time, the challenge of translating complex 3D data into meaningful metrics that can be used in conjunction with biological data currently hinders progress and accessibility. C_LIO_LIWe introduce habtools, an R package that provides R functions to efficiently calculate complexity and shape metrics from DEMs, 3D meshes and 2D shapes as well as some helper functions to facilitate workflow. C_LIO_LIWe expect the functionality of habtools to continue to expand as new metrics and faster methods become available, and welcome new contributions and ideas. C_LI
