The 2020 Vision:  Enhancing Security in the Government and Law Enforcement with Innovative Biometric Data and Technology. 

Biometric technology has altered and transformed security in the United States and beyond. The fiscal year 2020 Budget request of $269.6M for the Office of Biometric and Identity Management clearly identifies a continuous advancement in mobile biometrics, automation, contactless passage, verification, multimodal and analysis processes. With the progression of innovative technology and the plethora of biometric data developments, it is imperative to understand how to utilize solutions ensuring national security and ultimately vetting potential threats.. In addition, learning what solutions your counterparts are utilizing to secure their facilities, exchange and store data and how they are navigating upcoming policies and GDPR requirements has become crucial. IDGA’s Biometrics for Government and Law Enforcement Summit, now in its 14th successful year, is the annual gathering place to assess your challenges and network in order to establish optimum solutions.

In 2020, governments all across the globe will invest billions in the latest biometric-powered security solutions such as facial recognition CCTV, fingerprint sensors, iris scanners and even DNA matching. The aim of these projects is to not only enhance security measures in high target areas and reduce fraud, but create a host of new & improved customer, payer, passenger and citizen experiences. To give you a glimpse into where the industry is heading, we created this interactive map to highlight 20 of the major government and law enforcement biometric projects in the works such as:

• Preparing for the Japan Olympics 2020. How Japan is embracing facial recognition to streamline air travel and biometric-based cashless payment systems ahead of the 2020 Olympics. 
• How China built the world's largest facial recognition surveillance system and what's next for this market as backlash grows. 
• India's Digi Yatra project and how it will transform the end-to-end passenger process 
• How Tanzania leveraged social media influencers to push biometric SIM card registration 
• Plus! Updates on recent RFPs, calls for bidders and technical requirements from upcoming projects from all around the world
