Goal and impact
Tilburg municipality deploys the algorithm to check whether the resident is who he says he is. This allows Tilburg municipality to give the best service to the right residents without making mistakes in this.
Considerations
The biometric data on identity cards, passports and driving licences are linked to the resident in such a way that we can be sure we are helping the right resident based on this data. This prevents errors and possible identity fraud that can create unpleasant situations for residents.
Human intervention
Providing municipal services is still always up to the official, the algorithm cannot approve anything itself.
Risk management
Once errors data are processed, problems arise when a resident needs to identify himself at agencies worldwide.
Legal basis
