Submitted comments from the public will be selected on a firstcome, first-served basis and limited to five minutes per person for oral presentation if requested by the commenter. For the April meeting, the commenter needs to specify if they plan to be in-person at the meeting or want to provide their comments virtually. Both options will be available in April. Members of the public who wish to expand upon their submitted statements, those who had wished to submit a comment but could not be accommodated on the agenda, and those who were unable to attend the meeting via webinar are invited to submit written statements. In addition, written statements are invited and may be submitted to the IoT Advisory Board at any time. All written statements should be directed to the IoT Advisory Board Secretariat, Information Technology Laboratory by email to: Barbara.Cuthill@nist.gov. Admittance Instructions: Participants planning to attend via webinar must register via the instructions found on the IoT Advisory Board’s page https:// www.nist.gov/itl/applied-cybersecurity/ nist-cybersecurity-iot-program/internetthings-advisory-board. For attendance in person at the hybrid meeting in April, in-person attendance is limited to 50 and will be on a firstcome, first-served basis.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Law enforcement and related criminal justice agencies, as well as identity management organizations, procure equipment and systems intended to facilitate the determination of the personal identity of a subject or verify the identity of a subject using biometric information. To effectively exchange identity data across jurisdictional lines or between dissimilar systems made by different manufacturers, a standard is needed to specify a common format for the data exchange. Biometric data refers to a digital or analog representation of a behavioral or physical characteristic of an individual that can be used by an automated system to distinguish an individual as belonging to a subgroup of the entire population or, in many cases, can be used to uniquely establish or verify the identity of a person (compared to a claimed or referenced identity). Biometric modalities specifically included in this standard are: fingerprints, plantars (footprints), palm prints, facial images, DNA and iris images. Identifying characteristics that may be used manually to establish or verify the identity of an individual are included in the standard. These identifying characteristics include scars, (needle) marks, tattoos, and certain characteristics of facial photos, iris images and images of other body parts. Latent friction ridge prints (fingerprint, palm print and plantars) are included in SUMMARY: PO 00000 Frm 00064 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 9489 this standard and may be used in either an automated system or forensically (or both).

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Law enforcement and related criminal justice 
agencies, as well as identity management organizations, procure 
equipment and systems intended to facilitate the determination of the 
personal identity of a subject or verify the identity of a subject 
using biometric information. To effectively exchange identity data 
across jurisdictional lines or between dissimilar systems made by 
different manufacturers, a standard is needed to specify a common 
format for the data exchange.
    Biometric data refers to a digital or analog representation of a 
behavioral or physical characteristic of an individual that can be used 
by an automated system to distinguish an individual as belonging to a 
subgroup of the entire population or, in many cases, can be used to 
uniquely establish or verify the identity of a person (compared to a 
claimed or referenced identity). Biometric modalities specifically 
included in this standard are: fingerprints, plantars (footprints), 
palm prints, facial images, DNA and iris images. Identifying 
characteristics that may be used manually to establish or verify the 
identity of an individual are included in the standard. These 
identifying characteristics include scars, (needle) marks, tattoos, and 
certain characteristics of facial photos, iris images and images of 
other body parts. Latent friction ridge prints (fingerprint, palm print 
and plantars) are included in this standard and may be used in either 
an automated system or forensically (or both).

of this American National Standards Institute (ANSI) approved American 
National Standard using the NIST Canvass Method to demonstrate evidence
