Descripción
Amber fossils provide a unique window into ancient ecosystems, offering insights into extinct organisms through remarkable preservation of both external and internal structures: fossilised specimens are preserved 3-dimensionally, they allow us to study surface structures of the animals such as hairs, scales or flower structures which are in the rarest case preserved in other forms of fossils, and they occasionally conserve internal soft tissues which allows the complete or partial reconstruction of the inner anatomy of the studied fossil organism. AMBCAT aims to centralise and make accessible high-resolution digital scans of these rare fossils, fostering collaboration among researchers and advancing scientific research on a global scale
