19. UID9 – Unique Identifier
One driver/one license/one driver control record
A person can have only one driver license
All driver safety information is kept on a single driver control record
All cards issued to a person are linked
The driver license or ID card is issued to the right person
The process and therefore the credential can be trusted

20. Associating the Identity with the Person
One person can have multiple identities
Multiple persons can share one identity
This could result from
Purposeful actions
Inaccurate processing
Undesirable regardless of the cause

Are you who you say you are?
Are you one of these people?
Are you also somebody else?

22. Our Main Problem
Are you also somebody else?

23. UID9 Efforts Unique identifier without use of biometrics
Study on possibility of using biometrics as the unique identifier

Can we use biometrics to meet our requirements?
If so, which biometric or biometrics will work best?
Goal is to present initial report to the AAMVA Board in September 2004
