摘要：Prior to May 2013 the legacy Integrated Automated Fingerprint Identification System (IAFIS) did not have the capability to store or launch a search against palm prints. The Next Generation Identification (NGI) System provides a new investigative biometric service—the National Palm Print System (NPPS). This system dramatically improves law enforcement access to palm prints previously stored within federal, state, tribal, and local law enforcement databases.
