Project 1564 - Information Technology – Finger Minutiae Format for Data Interchange AMENDMENT 1

Implementers working with INCITS 378-2004 have raised concerns that it is not sufficiently precise regarding to its conformance requirements. One objective of this project will be to evaluate such concerns and develop revisions in the standard that will
resolve them.

Test results of initial interoperability of biometric data that conforms to INCITS 378-2004 have suggested that the degree of interoperability may, at least in certain situations, be less than was intended by the original standard. A second objective of this project will be to evaluate such test results and to possibly develop technical changes that may result in higher levels of interoperability.
