Facial Analysis, Comparison, and Evaluation Services

Overview
The Facial Analysis, Comparison, and Evaluation (FACE) Services Unit of the Biometric Services Section, Criminal Justice Information Services (CJIS) Division provides investigative lead support to FBI field offices, operational divisions, and legal attachés by comparing the facial images of persons associated with open assessments and investigations against facial images available in state and federal face recognition systems. In limited instances, the FACE Services Unit provides face recognition support for closed FBI cases (e.g., missing and wanted persons) and may offer face recognition support to federal partners.
