The The Virtual Zooarchaeology of the Arctic Project (VZAP) is a web-based osteological reference collection in 3D. The intent of the project is to provide a comprehensive aid to the analysis of osteological remains from northern archaeological (and palaeontological) sites. The goal of the project is to replicate the characteristics of a traditional osteological reference collection, while providing functionality only possible in a digitally\based environment. The VZAP builds on a pilot project that tested the potential of a web-based virtual zooarchaeological collection of Arctic species. In VZAP Phase 2, a full complement of Arctic species will be added to the web-based collection and accessible to researchers and educators. VZAP Phase 2, incorporates the feedback from a user survey; completes the scanning of the full suite of taxa intended for the project; refines and streamlines the database, user interface, and 3D rendering capabilities; and develops a means for allowing user\generated content for the website, to insure its continued growth and applicability beyond the scope of the funding cycle.

The Virtual Zooarchaeology of the Arctic Project（VZAP）是一个基于网络的3D骨骼学参考资料库。该项目的目的是为分析来自北方考古（和古生物学）遗址的骨骸提供全面的帮助。该项目的目标是复制传统骨学参考收藏的特征，同时提供只有在数字化环境中才可能实现的功能。VZAP建立在一个试点项目的基础上，该项目测试了基于网络的北极物种虚拟动物考古学收藏的潜力。在VZAP第二阶段，北极物种的完整补充将被添加到基于网络的集合中，并可供研究人员和教育工作者使用。VZAP第2阶段，结合了用户调查的反馈;完成了项目的全套分类单元的扫描;完善和简化了数据库，用户界面和3D渲染功能;并开发了一种允许用户为网站生成内容的方法，以确保其持续增长和适用性超出资金周期的范围。
