• Commonality

• Security

• Tighter standards for the picture

• Common security feature

14


Two Basic Layouts

– Issuing jurisdiction– Issuing country

16


DL/ID Card Zones

• Zone II– Most of the data elements– Digitized signature (one choice)

• Zone III– The portrait

• Full-face for all

• 70-80% of Zone Three

– Digitized signature (the other choice)

17


Common Security Device

• An Optical Variable Device or OVD

• Always in Zone 4 (back of the license)

• Primarily a Level 1 device, but will have some Level 2 features

18


Goals for the OVD

• Simple, recognizable design

• Difficult to copy or simulate

• Easily learned methods of validation

19


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• Color movement• Flip image

– Level 2 (needs a tool)• Nanotext• Feature that uses a special light source, such as laser or

ultraviolet

The Common MRT

• MRT = machine-readable technology

• The requirement– The PDF-417 bar code must be used– A second MRT may be used in addition

• Steps taken to improve implementation

21


DL/ID Card Verification

• Each business will determine the level of verification they will use based on their own assessment of their own risk. For example:– Library may just look at Level 1 feature(s).– Bars may look at Level 1 and Level 2.– Airlines may want to electronically verify the

license with the issuing agency.
