ITL 1-2011 Errata to 2015 Update

Although each version of the ITL has been submitted to careful proofreading by the Editor and the COI, 

errors do sometimes go undetected. When it is determined that a published version of the standard 

contains an error or errors, an errata sheet may be published at the discretion of the Editor. 

Errata are considered text erroneously published in the ITL or its Supplements that does not accurately 

reflect the intended requirements as approved by the COI. This errata sheet is intended to correct errors 

and alleviate potential confusion. In each case, the object is to promote accuracy, clarity, consistency 

and thoroughness. 

The issuance of an erratum does not lessen the value of the original publication. Since the majority of ITL 

content is unaffected by errata, an errata sheet should be viewed as a supplement to a viable 

publication. 

An Errata XML schema is posted on the ITL webpage to ensure that ITL users receive Errata information 

in a timely manner, and these changes will be incorporated into the next revision of the standard. 

Adoption of this schema is considered conformant to ITL-2011, and is recommended for all 

implementations of ITL 1-2011. 

The affected fields are:

Table 107 Type 16 

16.994 EFR

The Character Type for this field is B, but all 

other EFR fields have a data type of U.

Correct character type for 16.994 EFR 

to “U”

EFR and DATA fields

Some EFR and DATA fields have a minimum 

occurrence of 1. However, fields with a 

Dependent condition code always have a 

minimum occurrence of zero.

Change the minimum occurrence of the 

following fields to zero: 

EFR and DATA fields

10.029 FPC

Currently the following conditions exist: EFR: 13.994, 14.994, 15.994, 16.994, 

17.994, 19.994

10.994, 11.994, 12.994, 20.994, 21.994, 

22.994 – minimum occurrence of 0 DATA: 10.999, 13.999, 16.999

13.994, 14.994, 15.994, 16.994, 17.994, 

19.994 – minimum occurrence of 1

11.999, 12.999, 14.999, 15.999, 17.999, 

19.999, 20.999, 21.999, 22.999 - minimum

10.999, 13.999, 16.999 - minimum 

occurrence of 1

The Feature Point ID (Table 78) can include 

values that are only 1 character in length. 

For example, ‘v’ (vertex) and ‘g’ (glabella). 

The current minimum length is stated as 3.

Change minimum length to 1 to include 

allowed Feature Point ID code values 

for 10.029 information item FPC.

Table 78 ISO 

definitions of the 

anthropometric 

landmarks

The MPEG4 Feature Point for the Feature 

Point ID of “go” is listed as 2.15 and 2.16. 

However, these points in Figure 14 and 

disagrees with ISO/IEC WD 39794-5 

Extensible biometric data interchange 

formats – Part 5: Face image data which 

has values of 2.13 and 2.14.

Correct MPEG4 Feature Point for the 

Feature Point ID of “go” to 2.13 and 

2.14.

Correct spelling “mandibular”
