# Commission Decision of 22 September 2006 laying down the technical specifications on the standards for biometric features related to the development of the Visa Information System (notified under document number C(2006) 3699) (Only the Czech, Dutch, English, Estonian, Finnish, French, German, Greek, Italian, Latvian, Lithuanian, Polish, Portuguese, Swedish, Slovak, Slovene, Spanish, and Hungarian versions are authentic) (2006/648/EC), Division 4.2: Segmentation

Extent: E+W+S+N.I.

Segmentation is the process of partitioning each multi-finger image into multiple single-finger images. Segmentation must be performed at the national level before the quality check, as quality checks can only be performed on single finger images.
The CS-VIS will be developed to accept segmented fingerprint images only.
