-
— an on-card biometric comparison format based on extensible TLV encoding;
-
-
— on-card biometric comparison parameters based on extensible TLV encoding for constructing valid probe data in the on-card biometric comparison format;
-
— examples of data record contents;
-
— application-specific requirements, recommendations and best practices in determining minutiae location, direction and type; and
-
— conformance test assertions and conformance test procedures applicable to this document.
NOTE Whereas ISO/IEC 39794‑4 covers finger, palm, toe and foot image data, this document covers only finger minutiae and is not applicable to palms, toes or feet.
