Ötzi is a mummified human discovered in 1991 in the Schnalstal glacier in the Alps, on the border between Austria and Italy. He died around 3300 BC. The mummy offers a wealth of information about the humans living in Europe at the time. Ötzi was named after the Ötztal region where he was found.

The new Iceman photoscan website now gives all web users access to images of the body gathered by researchers. The site has a dynamic online-map-style interface to let people zoom into photographs that capture Ötzi from all angles and show details as small as 1 millimetre.

They're providing these up close & personal scans, as an excellent way to protect Ötzi from being damaged from over study. Good idea, these scans should answer the questions most scholars have about him. They've taken special care to record Ötzi's tattoos, and they even have 3-D images, if you have a pair of anaglyph glasses (cyano and red).
aside -
Ötzi's tools have already revealed a lot.
