<strong>ANSI</strong>/<strong>NIST</strong>-<strong>ITL</strong> 1-<strong>2011</strong>Data Format for the Interchange of Biometric and Forensic Informationcompression methods. An entry of “NONE” in this field indicates that the datacontained in this record is uncompressed. The image shall be represented as anarray of n rows by m columns by at least 8-bit pixels. Each pixel in amonochrome image shall be represented by eight or more bits. Color imagesshall be represented as a sequential sample of a red, green, and blue intensityfor each pixel. The image shall be organized in row-major order, with the lowestaddress corresponding to the upper left corner of the image.For those images that are to be compressed, the method of compression of irisimages is specified by the baseline mode of the JPEG algorithm or JPEG 2000.21.12 Field 17.012: 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 quantization.21.13 Field 17.013: Color space / CSPThis mandatory ASCII field shall contain an entry from Table 1 to identify thecolor space used to exchange the image data. If the color space for an RGBimage cannot be determined, an entry of "RGB" shall be entered in field 17.013.The description for field 10.012 contains additional information on the color spacefield.21.14 Field 17.014: Rotation angle of eye / RAEThis optional field shall indicate the rotation angle of the eye. For rectilinearimages, rotation angle = round (65536 * angle / 360) modulo 65536. The angle ismeasured in degrees from horizontal to the inter-pupillary line. The value “FFFF”indicates rotation angle of eye is undefined.21.15 Field 17.015: Rotation uncertainty / RAUThis optional field shall indicate the rotation uncertainty. The rotation uncertaintyis equal to [round (65536 * uncertainty / 180)]. The uncertainty is measured indegrees and is the absolute value of maximum error. The value “FFFF” indicatesuncertainty is undefined.21.16 Field 17.016: <strong>Image</strong> property code / IPCThis optional field shall contain the image property code. It shall contain threeinformation items.The first information item is the horizontal orientation code / IHO. Values forHorizontal Orientation shall be one of: “0” for Undefined, “1” for Base, or “2”for Flipped. “Base” orientation refers to images corresponding to the viewfacing the subject, where the nasal side of subject’s left eye or outer edge ofthe subject’s right eye is on the left side the of image. “Flipped” orientationBrad Wing 6/21/10 1:35 PMComment: Reorganized for clarity209DRAFT 2
