PAPILLON: UP-TO-DATE BIOMETRIC SOLUTIONS
from Russia

Implemented Projects of PAPILLON AFIS/APIS

Local AFISs (Single-Machine and Standard Multimachine Systems)

More than 2,500 local PAPILLON AFIS sites are currently in operation.

Sophisticated Network Solutions

In 1997-1998, the PAPILLON AFIS enabled the automation of fingerprint files amassed in the Information Center of the Directorate of Criminal Expertise in Perm Region. It was the first in Russia regional AFIS with a network of remote AFIS sites and stations of live-scan fingerprinting, maintaining a database of 1 million tenprints and 100 thousand latents. Over a period of just the next 4 years, 11 more large-scale projects were implemented in different regions of Russia, managing 500 thousand to 2,6 million tenprints.

Encouraged by the MOI of Russia in 2002, automated fingerprint and palmprint data banks had been created throughout Russia by the end of 2006, namely:

- National AFIS installed in the Main Information-Analysis Center of the Ministry of the Interior of Russia (Federal AFIS-MIC),

- Federal district AFISs installed in all federal districts.

Since 2005, this activity became a part of the MOI’s program “Creation of an Integrated Information Telecommunication System (EITKS) of Internal Affairs Departments”, enabling creation of regional AFISs in 70 regions of Russia.

Size of the AFIS systems implemented:

• Federal AFIS-MIC in Main Information-Analysis Center, MOI of Russia – 35 million tenprints

• Southern Federal District AFIS (AFIS-UFO) installed in GUVD of Stavropol Territory – 3 million tenprints and 100 thousand latents

• Southern Federal District AFIS (AFIS-UFO) installed in GUVD of Krasnodar Territory – 4 million tenprints and 110 thousand latents

• Volga Federal District AFIS (AFIS-PFO) installed in GUVD of Perm Region – 4 million tenprints and 100 thousand latents

• Volga Federal District AFIS (AFIS-PFO) installed in MOI of Republic of Tatarstan – 6,5 million tenprints and 150 thousand latents

• Northwest Federal District AFIS (AFIS-SZFO) installed in GUVD of St.Petersburg and Leningrad Region – 6 million tenprints and 200 thousand latents

• Central Federal District AFIS (AFIS-CFO) installed in Moscow GUVD – 10 million tenprints and 200 thousand latents

• Ural Federal District AFIS (AFIS-UrFO) installed in GUVD of Sverdlovsk Region – 7 million tenprints and 120 thousand latents

• Siberian Federal District AFIS (AFIS-SFO) installed in GUVD of Kemerovo Region – 5 million tenprints and 120 thousand latents

• Siberian Federal District AFIS (AFIS-SFO) installed in GUVD of Novosibirsk Region – 6 million tenprints and 120 thousand latents

• Far Eastern Federal District AFIS (AFIS-DFO) installed in UVD of Khabarovsk Territory – 4 million tenprints and 120 thousand latents

• Regional AFIS database capacity – 150 thousand tenprints (Republic of Adygeya with a 440 thousand population) to 3 million tenprints (Moscow Region, 6,6 million population).

Being a sole AFIS provider, PAPILLON was a key executor in all projects since 2002 to 2007.

By the end of 2007, total capacity of all AFIS databases accumulated on national, federal district and regional levels is 138 million tenprints, 3,8 million latent fingerprints and 700 thousand latent palmprints. Number of operator workstations at central AFIS sites is 1005. Number of remote AFIS access sites is 856.
