The emap Atlas is also available on a set of CD-ROMs.
These contain all of the browsers available here on the emap website but
when they are run directly from the CDs, a network connection is not required
for most of them (accessing the Theiler staging guide and the Anatomy
Nomenclature Database does require a network connection however).
The CDs also contain the full 3D digital reconstruction files for each
emap embryo model. These are not included on this website as they are
large files and download would be extremely slow over the internet. The
CDs also contain a program to install on your hard-drive called MAPaint
which can be used to navigate through these full 3D digital embryo reconstructions
to take virtual sections in ANY plane.
Please note that MAPaint requires a UNIX operating environment (ie. MacOSX,
PC-Linux, Solaris or Irix).
