Background

3

16-18 Sep 2008: BTF Standards Branch (STB) participated in the NATO

Standardization Conference, Achieving Interoperability through

Standardization - first exposure to NATO standards community

May – Aug 2009: Multiple discussions and references across the DoD

biometrics community about the need to initiate a STANAG for biometrics, but

no real requirement

Sep 2009: BTF STB met with the Chairman of the Joint Capability Group for

Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance (JCGISR) to identify the

proponent in NATO for biometric standardization

Oct 2009: European Command (EUCOM) distributed a call for comments to

NATO to identify the most appropriate NATO forum in which to initiate a

STANAG

Synopsis of Meetings

BTF STB participated in 3 technical working groups of

the JCGISR in Oradea, Romania

BTF STB briefed the HUMINT TWG meeting, which

included representatives from the U.S., Italy, France, U.K.,

Norway, and Romania

Recommendation for JCGISR to Serve as NATO Forum

Human Intelligence (HUMINT) and Measurement and

Signature Intelligence (MASINT) Technical Working

Groups are the proposed NATO forums in which the

STANAG will be jointly developed

BTF STB distributed a trip report to the BSWG from

Romania on 08 Dec 2009 with greater details on the

discussions that led to this recommendation

Way Forward

Near Term Actions BTF will champion DoD entities involved with NATO to initiate a STANAG for biometrics

BTF will lead the development of a NATO STANAG for biometrics in support of ISAF

interoperability

26 Jan 2010: Meeting with Chairman of JCGISR to formally initiate STANAG and

finalize development timeline and plan

Challenges Requirements/resources for NATO ISAF Automated Biometric Identification System

(ABIS) – Authoritative biometric source for ISAF

Ensuring enterprise vision and vendor agnostic interoperability of all biometric devices

Compressed development timeline for STANAG to be relevant and to support the ISAF

mission in Afghanistan

Capture relevant ISAF data requirements – (data element caveats across member

countries in Type-2)

Upgrade existing legacy systems to become STANAG conformant
