Biometrics in Support of Military Operations: Lessons from the
Battlefield examines and evaluates recent U.S. military experiences
in Iraq and Afghanistan in the context of the use of biometrics and
related technologies. The book takes a comprehensive look at how
biometrics has been used to support various military operations and
suggests ways that its uses can be further developed. It fills a
void in understanding how to incorporate biometrics by providing a
guide to develop and establish formal operational roles and
procedures when applying the technology. Written in an informal
style that makes it accessible to people who are not necessarily
operators or technicians of biometrics technologies, this book
bridges an existing gap to better educate leaders inside and
outside of the U.S. military on the far-reaching potential of
biometrics in support of tactical operations. It argues that the
gap between those inside and outside the military is the result of
failure to document lessons learned from battle experience, as well
as a lack of a combined vision among the Joint Forces to fully
recognize and exploit the capabilities of biometrics for enhanced
future success. This book fills that gap. Biometrics has great
potential as an effective tool if properly developed and utilized.
The book concludes with a look at the future of emerging
applications for the military but also considers a wider range of
deployment of biometrics outside the military, such as in
governmental organizations, including foreign diplomacy. Biometrics
can be applied to any operational area that requires accurate and
rapid identification of unknown individuals in order to support its
operations and protect personnel and resources. Biometrics in
Support of Military Operations is an important beginning point in
an emerging field for gaining understanding and better mastery of
biometrics.
