Abstract

The Service Description Document (SDD) provides stakeholders with all aspects of the Person Photo Search Request Service (PPSReqS) that are not directly tied to the physical implementation of the service, while the Service Interface Description Document (SIDD) provides a description of the physical implementation of the PPSReqS. The PPSReqS provides the capability to request photos and demographic data from a Photo Imaging Network (PIN) and Department of Transportation (DOT) photo systems matching provided criteria; it will take various combinations of Name, Date of Birth (DOB), Social Security Number (SSN), Operators License Number (OLN), and State Fingerprint Identification (SID) as input criteria. The SDD lays out the Service overview, including scope, capabilities, real-world effects, security classification, service specification package version, and more; it also provides Service interoperability requirements, including Service assumptions and dependencies, policies and contracts, security, privacy, and other requirements; as well as service model information, including behavior and information models for photo search requests. The SIDD document in this Service Package include is a companion document to the PPSReqS Service Description Document, providing execution context; Service interaction requirements; interface description requirements; message exchange patterns and definition mechanisms; policies and contracts, including automated and nonautomated service contracts; umbrella agreements; security and privacy information; and service testing.
