The article presents methods of acquiring face morphometric data using direct measurements, 2D photoanthropometry and 3D scanning.The aim of the work was to compare the accuracy of the dimensions.In the study 15 students at the age of 22-24 years were examined.Subsequently 13 linear dimensions of face were measured with the use of a caliper on the test persons, as well as on 2D photos and on 3D models in the scanner software.Percentage differences of the obtained measurements were calculated in order to check the occurring deviations.In addition, Bland-Altman plots were created for a few selected parameters to assess the compliance of the measurement methods.Three-dimensional scanning has been found to be the optimal method of obtaining reliable anthropometric data.
