Excerpts from ISO/IEC 19785-2:
-----
5.1 This part of ISO/IEC 19785 defines procedures for registration by which ASN.1 object identifier components are assigned to:
a) organizations concerned with the specification of biometric formats or with biometric products that either directly, or through the data that they produce, claim conformance to or can be used in conjunction with ISO/IEC 19785, ISO/IEC 19784, or one of the parts of ISO/IEC 19794;
b) Biometric Information Record (BIR) formats specified by a CBEFF patron;
c) Biometric Data Block (BDB) formats specified by a registered biometric organization;
d) Security Block (SB) formats specified by a registered biometric organization; and
e) biometric products supported by a registered biometric organization.
Note: International Standards do not require the registration of BIR formats, BDB formats, SB formats, or biometric products, but registration is possible if a CBEFF patron or biometric organization considers that registration would be beneficial.
5.4 Components of ASN.1 object identifiers are positive integers (including zero) of unlimited magnitude. However, there are standards, for example ISO/IEC 19784-1, using the components allocated by this Registration Authority (RA) that use a simple 16-bit positive integer encoding for such components. The RA is therefore required to allocate values for arcs that can be represented as a 16-bit positive integer, and to alert the relevant ISO/IEC subcommittee before making allocations with any of the top three bits set to one.
Note: It is expected that allocations will normally start at zero and proceed incrementally upwards except under exceptional requirements.
5.5 Successful registration as a biometric organization provides that biometric organization with a CBEFF biometric organization identifier. This is a sixteen-bit binary value (that can be interpreted as a positive integer) for an ASN.1 object identifier arc under {iso registration-authority cbeff(19785) organizations(0)}. [...]
5.6 A biometric organization that is recognized by the RA as the producer of open standards (standards that are subject to vetting procedures that ensure that they are technically correct and accurate and have wide-spread approval) will be recorded as having open standardization privileges, and is then called a CBEFF patron, and its CBEFF biometric organization identifier is called a CBEFF patron identifier. Any registered biometric organization can register BDB formats (see 5.8), SB formats (see 5.9), and biometric products (see 5.10), but only a CBEFF patron can register a BIR format - a CBEFF patron format (see 5.7).
5.7 Successful registration of a BIR format by a CBEFF patron records that the BIR format is identified by an arc with a sixteen-bit BIR format identifier (provided by the CBEFF patron) and also called a CBEFF patron format identifier, under the arc {iso registration-authority cbeff(19785) organizations(0) organization id birs(1)} and enables publication of a hreference to the specification of that BIR format (CBEFF patron format). The organization id is the sixteen-bit CBEFF patron identifier of the definer of the CBEFF patron format. The allocated object identifier value is worldwide unambiguous, but the BIR format identifier can also be used alone in contexts where the preceding arcs are implied. Arcs identified by CBEFF patron format identifiers do not have arc names.
5.8 Successful registration of a BDB format by a biometric organization records that the BDB format is identified by an arc with a sixteen-bit BDB format identifier (provided by the CBEFF biometric organization) under the arc {iso registration-authority cbeff(19785) organizations(0) organization id bdbs(0)} and enables publication of a hreference to the specification of that BDB format. The organization id is the sixteen-bit CBEFF biometric organization identifier of the definer of the BDB format. The allocated object identifier value is worldwide unambiguous, but the BDB format value can also be used alone in contexts where the preceding arcs are implied. Arcs identified by CBEFF BDB format identifiers do not have arc names.
5.9 Successful registration of an SB format by a biometric organization records that that SB format is identified by an arc with a sixteen-bit SB format identifier (provided by the CBEFF biometric organization) under the arc {iso registration-authority cbeff(19785) organizations(0) organization id sb-formats(3)} and enables publication of a hreference to the specification of that SB format. The organization id is the sixteen-bit CBEFF biometric organization identifier of the definer of the SB format. The allocated object identifier value is worldwide unambiguous, but the SB format value can also be used alone in contexts where the preceding arcs are implied. Arcs identified by CBEFF SB format identifiers do not have arc names.
5.10 Successful registration of a biometric product by a CBEFF biometric organization records that the biometric product is identified by an arc with a CBEFF biometric product identifier allocated by the Registration Authority. This is a sixteen-bit binary value (that can be interpreted as a positive integer) for an ASN.1 object identifier arc under {iso registration-authority cbeff(19785) organizations(0) organization id products(2)}. The organization id is the sixteen-bit CBEFF biometric organization identifier of the owner of the biometric product. The allocated object identifier value is worldwide unambiguous, but the biometric product identifier can also be used alone in contexts where the preceding arcs are implied. Arcs identified by biometric product identifiers do not have arc names.
