Popis: Three-dimension modeling of fossils is one of the branches of computer using in palaeontology. The branch has wide perspectives but it is hardly developed, especially in micropalaeontology. Proposed method of 3D modelling of microfossils demands no unique and expansive equipment and can be realized practically in any palaeontological laboratory. Lower accuracy of the models developed is not critical for most the fields of their utilization: for teaching purposes, construction of illustrated databases and virtual atlases, and for the display of microfossils to a general audience.
