DL/ID Card Design Specification 1 Rich Carter (AAMVA) Traffic Records Forum 2004 The DL/ID Card Design Specification Rich Carter (AAMVA)
2
DL/ID Card Design Specification 2 Approved by AAMVA Board at their September Meeting Published on AAMVA web site: –www.aamva.org/Documents/stdAAMVADL IDCardSpecs_092003.pdf Supercedes AAMVA DL/ID-2000
3
DL/ID Card Design Specification 3 Overview Conformance Mandatory vs. Optional Review of the Requirements Maintenance of the Specification Help with Interpretation and Problem Reporting
4
DL/ID Card Design Specification 4 Conformance Meet all mandatory requirements specified –Directly –By reference –Including Annex A – Card Design Annex B – Physical Security Annex C – Security Device Index Annex D – PDF-417 Bar Code Annex E – Test Methods
5
DL/ID Card Design Specification 5 Requirements Mandatory –Must do it –Must implement as specified Optional –Choice whether to use it –If used, then implement as specified May add other features as long as they do no interfere with requirements
6
DL/ID Card Design Specification 6 Functional requirements Evidence of the privilege to drive Identification Age verification Address/residence verification Automated administrative processing
7
DL/ID Card Design Specification 7 Three key concepts Interoperability Commonality Security
8
DL/ID Card Design Specification 8 ISO Compatibility Follow draft ISO standard for International Driver License except when there is a strong business need to do something differently.
9
DL/ID Card Design Specification 9 Review of the Requirements
10
DL/ID Card Design Specification 10 Human Readable Data Elements Gives details of data, format, and placement –Data Reference –On card reference –Zone placement –Data element name –Definition –Card type –Filed maximum length/type
11
DL/ID Card Design Specification 11 Human Readable Data Elements Must use either –On card reference –Data element name Data element name – May abbreviate, but –Use abbreviation given is one is supplied
12
DL/ID Card Design Specification 12 The Name Fields Family Name Given Name Name Suffix
13
DL/ID Card Design Specification 13 Numbers Customer Number –Previously the DLN Document discriminator –Specific instance of the document issued to that customer Audit information –When, where and by whom made Inventory control number –Affixed to raw materials
14
DL/ID Card Design Specification 14 The Card Layout
15
DL/ID Card Design Specification 15 Zones Used to tell where to put data elements Improves common look across jurisdictions Preserves some individuality Zone placement –One, two, and three on front –Four and five on back
16
DL/ID Card Design Specification 16 Two basic layouts given Horizontal – 21 and over Vertical – under 21 –Only the front is vertical
17
DL/ID Card Design Specification 17 Zone I Provides much of the common look Document type indicated by –Text phrase –Background colors Issuing jurisdiction Issuing country
18
DL/ID Card Design Specification 18 Zone II Most of the data elements Digitized signature (one choice)
19
DL/ID Card Design Specification 19 Zone III The portrait –Full-face for all –70-80% of Zone Three Digitized signature (the other choice)
20
DL/ID Card Design Specification 20 Zone IV The common security device Data elements, most explanatory or overflow
21
DL/ID Card Design Specification 21 Zone V The common machine-readable technology (MRT) A second MRT if used
22
DL/ID Card Design Specification 22 Physical Security Used to recommend their use, but there were no requirements Now at least six devices are required
23
DL/ID Card Design Specification 23 Security Levels Level 1 – unaided human senses Level 2 – some type of tool needed Level 3 – forensic
24
DL/ID Card Design Specification 24 Threat types Type 1 – counterfeit/simulation Type 2 – alteration Type 3 – photo/signature substitution Type 4 – counterfeit from cannibalized card
25
DL/ID Card Design Specification 25 Physical Security Requirements The common security device One level three device Four other devices for level one and two
26
DL/ID Card Design Specification 26 Common security device An Optical Variable Device (OVD) Always in Zone 4 (back of the license) Primarily a Level 1 device, but will have some Level 2 features More on the OVD later
27
DL/ID Card Design Specification 27 Level 3 Requirement Must have at least one Keep out of public record Details known only to those with need to know Shared only with accredited law enforcement labs
28
DL/ID Card Design Specification 28 Level 1 & 2 requirement Minimum of four devices Protect against all for threat types at both levels Do not count the OVD or the PDF-417
29
DL/ID Card Design Specification 29 DL/ID Device Index (Annex C) Lists of physical security devices –Description of the device –Threat type protected by level This annex is informative The actual protection will depend on how the device is used
30
DL/ID Card Design Specification 30 Goals for the OVD Simple, recognizable design Difficult to copy or simulate Easily learned methods of validation
31
DL/ID Card Design Specification 31 Production of the OVD Multiple sources, but All from a single origination So all look exactly the same
32
DL/ID Card Design Specification 32 OVD Task Force Plan of Action First RFP –Focused on Origination Second RFP –Will ensure multiple producers
33
DL/ID Card Design Specification 33 Progress of the OVD Task Force As a result of the first RFP, AAMVA is working with De La Rue to complete a contract for the origination The design may be announced at the AAMVA International Conference in August Expect to issue the second RFP later this year
34
DL/ID Card Design Specification 34 OVD Features The Task Force is strongly considering these features for the OVD: –Level 1 (visible to naked eye) 3-D art work Parallax clue Flip image –Level 2 (needs a tool) Microtext Feature that uses a special light source, such as laser or ultraviolet
35
DL/ID Card Design Specification 35 Mandatory Machine-Readable Technology The requirement –THE PDF-417 must be used –A second MRT may be used in addition Provides mapping for the data elements –Name fields are the major changes –Length/type descriptions may vary from the human readable ones
36
DL/ID Card Design Specification 36 Optional machine-readable Technologies Magnetic Stripe –Unchanged from the previous standard –Does not include the new name fields because of lack of space Optional Optical Memory –Unchanged from the previous standard
37
DL/ID Card Design Specification 37 Whatever happened to? Fingerprint Minutiae Annex –Responsibility passed to ANSI M1 –Their draft proposed standard is out Smart Card Annex –Became outmoded –We will develop when a jurisdiction commits to implementation
38
DL/ID Card Design Specification 38 Top 10 Changes to the DL/ID Card Design 6. Vertical format for under 21 7. The national designator “CDN” or “USA” 8. Pink or green background color in Zone 1 9. The heading “DRIVING LICENSE” 10. The new standards for the portrait
39
DL/ID Card Design Specification 39 Top 10 Changes to the DL/ID Card Design 1. The OVD as the common Level 1 security device 2. The mandatory PDF-417 barcode 3. Requirement for a minimum number of physical security devices 4. The new name fields 5. The use of layout zones
40
DL/ID Card Design Specification 40 Changes Group formed to review and maintain the document Likely changes include –Vertical format optional for Canadian jurisdictions –Date formats –Resolve language issues
