Ridgeology : The study of the uniqueness of friction  ridge  structures and their use for personal  identification . 1     1 Introduction to Basic Ridgeology  by David Ashbaugh, May 1999  Image from http://www.cs.usyd.edu.au/~irena/minutia.gif The koala is one of the few mammals (other than primates) that has fingerprints. In fact, koala fingerprints are remarkably similar to human fingerprints; even with an electron microscope, it can be quite difficult to distinguish between the two. Did you know? As we have learned in our first lesson, a fingerprint is made of a series of  ridges  and  valleys  on the surface of the finger. The uniqueness of a fingerprint can be determined by the  pattern  of ridges and valleys as well as the  minutiae  points, which are points where the ridge structure changes.
Fingerprint Identification When minutiae on two different prints match, these are called points of  similarity  or points of  identification . At this point there is  no  international standard for the number of points of identification required for a match between two fingerprints. However, the United Kingdom requires a minimum  sixteen  points while Australia requires  twelve .  Automated Fingerprint Identification System  ( AFIS ) http://www.fdle.state.fl.us/CrimeLab/images/fingerrint%20comparison%20for%20afis.jpg AFIS is a computerized system capable of reading, classifying, matching, and storing fingerprints for criminal justice agencies. Quality latent fingerprints are entered into the AFIS for a search for possible matches against the state maintained databases for fingerprint records to  help establish the identity of unknown deceased persons or suspects in a criminal case.
Ridge Characteristics  Use these characteristics as points of identification when comparing fingerprint samples.  The more points you can find in common, the better the match!

How many ridge characteristics can you identify in this fingerprint?  http://www.dkfz.de/tbi/projects/bmcv/images/iu_it246_04s_fingerprint1.jpg
1 – Blow up your  balloon about halfway and twist the end to keep the air from coming out.  Do not tie it off!  2 – Use an ink pad to make a print with all of your fingers and label each one with a permanent marker.  Write your name on the balloon as well.  3 – Blow up the balloon to full size and tie the end.  4 – Analyze the fingerprints to find several ridge structures that we have discussed.  Use a highlighter to mark these structures on your “My Prints” worksheet.  Try It! Think About It! Which ridge structures were most common in your fingerprints? Which ridge structures were most common in your group?  Were there any structures that were not found in any of the fingerprints?
