Abstract
Without doubt, during the 20th century and the beginnings of the 21st
century, humanity has witnessed the biggest advances in all fields, specially
in the field of technology. Every day, more and better technologies appear
that change fundamentally people’s life. States didn’t remain outside
these changes, and decided to incorporate new technological tools to
improve their administration. The emergence of biometry and systems of
biometric recognition didn’t go unnoticed, and States started to use them
in order to improve the security in the handling of information, particularly
in what concerns the identification of their inhabitants. The Argentinian
Republic has implemented satisfactorily the use of biometric tools and
the Province of Buenos Aires has joined up this project, initiating a process
of continuous growth in the development of biometric bases in several
government fields, fed through the biometric enrolling of individuals. In
this paper I will describe concisely the advance of biometry in the country’s
most populated province, including the creation of the Provincial Office
of Biometry, the only of its kind at the national level, as well as some of
the projects in which we are daily working to improve people’s quality of
life in Buenos Aires.
