Personal identification - European guide for biometric recognition applications based on ID documents (ERG) cen:proj:74870

Scope

This technical specification provides guidance on
• capturing of facial images to be used for verification or identification purposes in applications based on reference images in identity or similar documents and traveller or visa data bases,
• capturing of fingerprint images to be used for verification or identification purposes in applications based on reference images in identity or similar documents and traveller or visa data bases,
• data quality maintenance for biometric data captured by/for verification applications,
• data authenticity maintenance for biometric data captured by/for verification applications.
The TS addresses the following aspects which are specific for biometric reference data capturing:
• biometric data quality and interoperability ensurance,
• data authenticity ensurance,
• morphing and other presentation attack detection,
• accessibility and usability,
• privacy and data protection, and
• optimal process design.
The following aspects are out of scope:
• IT security, and
• data capturing for ID document enrolment purposes, e.g., passport or ID card enroilment.
