The third Netherlands field test and final documents demonstration was held in April 2022. A targeted group of more than 100 persons attended in a hybrid meeting, and the capabilities of four demonstrators were shown related to the analysis of travel documents and breeder documents.
This field test and final demonstration was held at the Koningin Máxima Kazerne, near Schiphol Airport, Amsterdam, Netherlands. It was hosted by the Identity Fraud and Documents Centre of Expertise department of the Royal Netherlands Marechaussee (RNM). Coordination of the event was supported by TNO, who is the leader of WP8 for document verification.
The field test and demonstration was a three day event. The first day included technical setup.
The second day focused on field testing by the Royal Netherlands Marechaussee (RNM), Dutch Immigration and Naturalisation Service (IND) and State Border Guard Services of Lithuania (SBGS). Positive feedback was received from the end users. Mentioned success factors of the D4FLY project were the cyclic/agile development approach and the intense collaboration between researchers and end users.
The third day included dissemination by presentations and demonstrations. The demonstration day was opened by RNM’s Lieutenant Colonel van Assen. More than 100 guests (in person and online) participated in the presentation. Four developed solutions (demonstrators) were successfully demonstrated: the breeder documents demonstrator, travel documents demonstrator (for holder pages), scan-based travel pattern extraction and video-based travel pattern extraction (for visa pages). The four document demonstrators were developed by TNO, Veridos, BPTI, Regula, OVD-Kinegram, Fraunhofer HHI, University of Reading and VTT.
