Paleontological research in Portugal :: Applied mobile GIS software: DigiTerra Explorer 6 Professional The Portuguese West Coast is a beautiful yet harsh landscape to explore due to high slope cliffs and very accelerated erosion process. This landscape conceals a very rich paleontological heritage: fossils of large vertebrate animals (mainly dinosaurs, turtles and crocodiles) from the jurassic period. Mobile GIS technology enabled paleontological researchers to better explore this area by determining exact location of fossils.
