    Towards best practices for biometric visa enrolment
    (BIOSIG 2010: Biometrics and Electronic Signatures. Proceedings of the Special Interest Group on Biometrics and Electronic Signatures, 2010) Rahmun, Fares; Hick, Sibylle
    Public sector applications - e.g. the process of application of a biometric visa - are connected to different kinds of technical, organisational, and legal requirements. But how can those requirements and recommendations be retrieved, analysed and described? The German federal government has taken part in the European pilot project BioDEV II in order to gain comprehensive experiences regarding the handling and processing of biometric visa. Furthermore, the Federal Office for Information Security (BSI) publishes technical guidelines that address different topics in information security. In this context, the Technical Guideline Biometrics for Public Sector (TR Biometrics) has been published in order to describe technical and organisational requirements and recommendations in the context of biometrics for electronic identity documents. In this paper the authors give an overview of the pilot project BioDEV II and show how the results have been introduced in the TR Biometrics.

    VISPILOT - towards european biometric visa border control
    (BIOSIG 2011 – Proceedings of the Biometrics Special Interest Group, 2011) Schwaiger, Michael; Rahmun, Fares; Bausinger, Oliver; Grell, Mathias
    To thoroughly prepare the expected start of the European Visa Information System (VIS) in 2011, Germany has implemented and evaluated the biometric visa border control process in a dedicated pilot project. In addition to implementing all necessary software modules for the access to the VIS, the focus of the project was set on the new feature of fingerprint biometrics. Fingerprint verification is applied to the primary position during border control where the process is optimised for fast completion, high throughput and ease of use. Extended identity checks with a quality-oriented border control process are conducted at the secondary position, where also a time-consuming fingerprint identification can be applied. Several tests were conducted during the pilot project in order to evaluate the VIS border control process. Recommendations regarding the implementation and operation of VIS related systems on the national level have been derived based on the evaluation results.
