Title

Biometric Data Collection for PIV Card

Control changed

Before · FIPS 201-2

The following biometric data shall be collected from each PIV applicant:

+ Two fingerprints, for off-card comparison. These shall be taken either from the full set of fingerprints collected in Section 2.3, or collected independently.

+ An electronic facial image.

The following biometric data may optionally be collected from a PIV applicant:

+ One or two iris images.

+ Two fingerprints, for on-card comparison. It is recommended that these be different than the fingerprints collected for off-card comparison.

If the biometric data that is collected as specified in this section and in Section 2.3 is collected on separate occasions, then a 1:1 biometric match of the applicant shall be performed at each visit against biometric data collected during a previous visit.

Biometric data collection shall conform to the procedural and technical specifications of [SP 800-76]. The choice of which two fingers is important and may vary between persons. The recommended selection and order is specified in [SP 800-76].

If the identity proofing and enrollment process is performed over multiple visits, an automated biometric verification attempt comparing the applicant’s newly captured biometric characteristics against biometric data thatcollected isduring a previous visit SHALL be performed at each visit and return a positive verification decision.
