<strong>ANSI</strong>/<strong>NIST</strong>-<strong>ITL</strong> 1-<strong>2011</strong>Data Format for the Interchange of Biometric and Forensic Informationa "2" indicates pixels per centimeter. A "0" in this field indicates no scale isgiven. For this case, the quotient of HPS/VPS gives the pixel aspect ratio.17.4.5 Field 13.009: Horizontal pixel scale / HPSThis mandatory ASCII field shall specify the integer pixel density used in thehorizontal direction of the transmitted image providing the SLC contains a "1" ora "2". Otherwise, it indicates the horizontal component of the pixel aspect ratio.17.4.6 Field 13.010: Vertical pixel scale / VPSThis mandatory ASCII field shall specify the integer pixel density used in thevertical direction of the transmitted image providing the SLC contains a "1" or a"2". Otherwise, it indicates the vertical component of the pixel aspect ratio.17.4.7 Field 13.011: Compression algorithm / CGAThis mandatory ASCII field shall specify the algorithm used to compress thetransmitted grayscale images. An entry of "NONE" in this field indicates that thedata contained in this record is uncompressed. For those images that are to belosslessly compressed, this field shall contain the code from Table 2 to indicatethe compression method used for the latent fingerprint images. See Section5.6.1. for additional information on the usage of JPEG 2000 for the compressionof fingerprint images. The domain registrar shall maintain a registry ofacceptable compression techniques and corresponding codes that may be usedas they become available. Note: The best practice for latent prints is nocompression or lossless compression.17.4.8 Field 13.012: Bits per pixel / BPXThis mandatory ASCII field shall contain the number of bits used to represent apixel. This field shall contain an entry of “8” for normal grayscale values of “0” to“255”. Any entry in this field greater than “8” shall represent a grayscale pixelwith increased precision.17.4.9 Field 13.013: Friction ridge generalized position / FGPThis mandatory field shall contain one or more possible finger, plantar or palmpositions that may be the source of the latent image. The decimal code numbercorresponding to the known or most probable friction ridge position shall be takenfrom Table 9 and entered as a one- or two-character ASCII subfield. Additionalfriction ridge positions may be entered. The code "0", for "Unknown Finger", shallbe used to reference every finger position from one through ten. Code "19" shallbe used to reference one or more parts of an EJI or tip. The code “20”, for“Unknown Palm”, shall be used to reference every listed palmprint position. Thecode “60” for “Unknown Sole,” or code “63” for “Unknown Toe” shall be used toreference every listed plantar position.173DRAFT 2
