<strong>ANSI</strong>/<strong>NIST</strong>-<strong>ITL</strong> 1-<strong>2011</strong>Data Format for the Interchange of Biometric and Forensic Information18.19 Field 14.020: Comment / COMThis optional ASCII field may be used to insert comments or other ASCII textinformation with the image data.18.20 Field 14.021: Finger segment position(s) / SEGThis mandatory ASCII field shall contain offsets to the locations of imagesegments containing the individual fingers within the flat images of simultaneousfingers from each hand or the two simultaneous thumbs. (FGP= 13,14,15 or 40-50). There is a subfield (Finger segment by algorithm / FBA) that occurs atleast once, and may be repeated if more than one algorithm is used to segmentthe image. Each subfield contains five information items.The first information item is the finger position number / FGP with values of"FV1" through "FV4". Values of “FV1” to “FV4” specify the boundingcoordinates for each full finger view. For the case of a fingertip, the firstinformation item shall be “TIP”The second information item is the left horizontal coordinate value / LHC. It isthe horizontal offset in pixels to the right relative to the origin positioned in theupper left corner of the image.The third information item is the right horizontal coordinate value / RHC. It isthe horizontal offset in pixels to the right relative to the origin positioned in theupper left corner of the image.The fourth information item is the top vertical coordinate value / TVC is thevertical offset (pixel counts down) to the top of the bounding box.The fifth information item is the bottom vertical coordinate value / BVC. It isthe vertical offset from the upper left corner of the image down to the bottomof the bounding box. It is counted in pixels18.21 Field 14.022: <strong>NIST</strong> quality metric / NQMThis optional ASCII field shall contain the <strong>NIST</strong> Fingerprint <strong>Image</strong> Quality (NFIQ)scores for the individual finger(s) derived from the slap impressions or individualrolled fingerprints. It consists of two information items.The first item is the finger number / FGP between one and ten as chosenfrom Table 9.The second item is the image quality score / QVU which is a quantitativeexpression of the predicted AFIS matcher accuracy performance of thefingerprint image. The scores range from "1" for the best quality image, to "5"for the worst quality image. A "254" indicates that no score was evercomputed while an entry of "255" shall indicate a failed attempt to calculatethe image quality metric.186DRAFT 2
