Cognaxon's NIST (ANSI/NIST-ITL 1-2000) library version 1.0 allows for the reading and extraction of files in the NIST (ANSI/NIST-ITL 1-2000) format.
For instance, while one WSQ file stores only one fingerprint image, one NIST file includes many fingerprint images and other relevant information. ANSI/NIST-ITL 1-2000 is the data format for the Interchange of Fingerprint, Facial, & Scar Mark & Tattoo (SMT) Information defined by the American National Standard for Information Systems.
To make things easier, a single NIST (ANSI/NIST-ITL 1-2000) file can store several types of data. These data types include Transaction Information, Descriptive Text, Fingerprint Image Data (Low-resolution), Fingerprint Image Data (High-resolution), Fingerprint Image Data (Low-resolution grayscale), Fingerprint Image Data (High-resolution grayscale), Image Data, Signature Image Data, Minutiae Data, Facial & SMT Image Data, Reserved for Future Use, Latent Image Data, Tenprint fingerprint Impressions, Palmprint Image Data, and User-defined Testing Image Data.
The software is compatible with Microsoft Visual C++ / Microsoft Visual C++ .NET, Microsoft Visual C# .NET, Microsoft Visual Basic, Microsoft Visual Basic .NET, Borland C++ Builder, Borland Delphi, Sun Java, NetBeans Sun Java, Eclipse Sun Java, MinGW C/C++, Eclipse C/C++, Code:: Blocks C++, Bloodshed Dev-C++, Borland C++ for Win32, Digital Mars C/C++, MatLab, Compaq Visual Fortran, and PowerBASIC.
Moreover, the software comes with sample projects that make it easy to use with the different programs, including MinGW C/C++, Eclipse C/C++, Code:: Blocks C++, Bloodshed Dev-C++, and others. If you need software that reads and extracts the NIST (ANSI/NIST-ITL 1-2000) file format, Cognaxon NIST (ANSI/NIST-ITL 1-2000) library is a great choice.
