ERGODATA Principles of the on-line Database System and applications
WEAR is a collaborative effort to create a world wide resource of anthropometric data for a wide variety of engineering applications. The users of anthropometric data can access through a central portal to a series of on-line database systems linked together, with a direct access through the web. The principles and the components of one of these database systems, ERGODATA, developed in the Laboratory is described. Then examples of analysis of anthropometric data are presented. The focus is on the analysis of retrospective results from anthropometric surveys on specific samples or populations to estimate the changes in morphology according to secular trends in different countries. A well documented example concerns the increase of the stature since the last 40-50 years. Based on the results taken from the available surveys in the database system, for example it is possible to estimate the evolution of the mean values of stature, weight, sitting height and cormic index for selected samples as well as for a global population. Evolutions for French males and females is described with the predictions up to the next 20 years. The same statistical models can be derived for other populations. Obviously the main difficulty to be solved is to get ensured that each sample is defined by the same criteria: gender, age, origin, sociocultural level,...
