The Automated Print Identification Section oversees all programs dealing with fingerprints and palm prints for law enforcement agencies in Michigan, specializing in the Automated Fingerprint Identification System (AFIS), Livescan, Mobile ID, and Ten-Print Analysis and Identification Unit.
The Michigan Automated Fingerprint Identification System (AFIS) is a computerized system for electronically receiving fingerprints, palm prints, latent prints, photos, and tattoos. AFIS encodes, searches, and stores ten-print, ten-print palm prints, latent fingerprints, and latent palm prints. AFIS forwards data to the Criminal History System (CHS), Statewide Network of Agency Photos (SNAP), Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI-AFIS) and the US Homeland Security/US VISIT AFIS (IDENT).
