Claim 3:
4. The method of claim 1, further comprising:
determining geometric characteristics of wear of a glenoid surface of the scapula from mapping data related to the glenoid surface of the scapula; and
determining vector characteristics of a force resultant of forces responsible for the wear of the glenoid surface from the geometric characteristics of the wear,
wherein determining the position of implantation of the glenoid implant comprises determining the position of implantation based on the force resultant of forces responsible for wear of the glenoid surface from the geometric characteristics of wear and based on action of the force resultant on articular cooperation between the scapula as prosthesized with the glenoid implant and a humerus of the patient.
