ANSI/<strong>NIST</strong>-ITL 1-<strong>2011</strong> - UPDATE 2013 DRAFT VERSIONthe classification has to be known definitively, but must at least be known to the extent ofexcluding plain arches. When no cores are present, this field shall not be used. See Table117: Features and Corresponding presence fields .For palmprints or other non-fingerprint friction ridge images, any number of core-likepatterns may be defined using this field if such structures are present. Each core isdefined in a separate subfield.Table 39 Number of cores and deltas by pattern classPattern Classification Cores DeltasArchesWhorls- Plain Arch 0 0- Tented Arch 0 or 1 0 or 1- Plain Whorl 1 or 2 2- Central Pocket Loop 1 or 2 2- Double Loop 2 2- Accidental Whorl N NLoops 1 1Each subfield consists of the following in<strong>for</strong>mation items:• The first in<strong>for</strong>mation item (‘x’ coordinate / CXC) shall be expressed ininteger units of 10 micrometers (0.01mm).• The second in<strong>for</strong>mation item (‘y’ coordinate / CYC) shall be expressed ininteger units of 10 micrometers (0.01mm).• The third in<strong>for</strong>mation item (direction / CDI) is optional. This shall be set tothe average tangent direction of the two closest ridges as measured 1.63mm(0.064 inches) from the focal point. This is approximately the same as thedirection of the directrix of the best fitting parabola. The direction shall beomitted (left empty) <strong>for</strong> circular whorls, or if the direction is unknown.• The fourth in<strong>for</strong>mation item (radius of position uncertainty / RPU) definesthe radius of a circle centered at the location (X,Y) of the core; the circle issized to include the area of other possible locations of the core, if the preciselocation cannot be determined (such as due to poor clarity). If the location isknown precisely, the radius of position uncertainty may be omitted or set to0. The radius of uncertainty is measured in integer units of 10 micrometers(0.01mm), and may overlap the edge of the image.• The fifth in<strong>for</strong>mation item (direction uncertainty / DUY) is optional.
