ANSI/<strong>NIST</strong>-ITL 1-<strong>2011</strong> - UPDATE 2013 DRAFT VERSION8.9.7.9 Field 9.311: EFS ridge flow map <strong>for</strong>mat / RFFThis optional field permits setting the sampling frequency or data representation <strong>for</strong>matused in the Field 9.310: EFS ridge flow map / RFM to values other than the defaults. Itsuse is conditional on the presence of Field 9.310. This field consists of two in<strong>for</strong>mationitems:• The first in<strong>for</strong>mation item (sampling frequency / SFQ) is set by default to0.41mm (0.016”). This in<strong>for</strong>mation item may be used to define higherresolution sampling frequencies than the default: valid settings range from“1” (0.01mm) through “41” (0.41mm).• The second in<strong>for</strong>mation item (data <strong>for</strong>mat / RDF) defines the <strong>for</strong>mat usedin the Ridge Flow Map field, as defined in Table 35. The default is theuncompressed (“UNC”) <strong>for</strong>mat.Table 35 Ridge flow map data representation <strong>for</strong>mat optionsType Code DescriptionUncompressed(concatenatedhexadecimal)base-64UNCB64Each ridge flow value is a 2-character hexadecimal value. The angles are stored in 2-character hexadecimal representation with leading zeros, so valid values range from “00”(0dec) to “B3” (179dec). Undefined angles: If the direction cannot be determined at a givenlocation, the location at that point shall be marked as “XX”. All of the ridge flow values <strong>for</strong> agiven row shall be concatenated in order left to right and saved as a separate instance /repeating subfield of Field 9.310: EFS ridge flow map / RFM.The number of characters in one repeating subfield of Field 9.310 is twice the number ofcells in one row.Each ridge flow value is a 1-character base-64 value. The angles are divided by three toenable storing in a single base-64 character, which has the effect of quantizing to threedegrees. Undefined angles: If the direction cannot be determined at a given location, thelocation at that point shall be marked as “*” (asterisk). All of the ridge flow values <strong>for</strong> agiven row shall be concatenated in order left to right and saved as a separate instance /repeating subfield of Field 9.310.The number of characters in one instance of Field 9.310: EFS ridge flow map / RFM is thenumber of cells in one row.8.9.7.10Field 9.312: EFS ridge wavelength map / RWMThis optional field contains the peak-to-peak distance between ridges at various samplingpoints throughout the region of interest. The sampling frequency is optionally defined inField 9.313: EFS ridge wavelength map <strong>for</strong>mat / RWF, and otherwise defaults to 0.41mm in uncompressed <strong>for</strong>mat. The first sampling point in the image is the top left-mostpoint. The same sampling frequency is used both horizontally and vertically. Values shallbe included <strong>for</strong> all sampling points in the image, even if the sampling points are at theedge of the image.152
