It is a self-service system for verifying the passenger’s identity and the authenticity of documents.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span id="more-1377"></span>At present the possibility to use the automatic check is given mainly to Finns and other EU citizens with a so-called biometric passport. In addition to personal data, biometric passports have an embedded digital photograph of the traveller. At the end of the year, the electronic border control system will also be opened for all those passengers who need a visa to travel to Finland. Finnish passport holders are identified by their facial features, but Russians and other travellers who require visas to travel to the EU will be recognised by their fingerprints.<br />
In Finland, automatic passport readers are in service only in two locations. Helsinki-Vantaa Airport was equipped with three devices in the summer of 2008, while at Vaalimaa the self-service system has been tested since December.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">”The first impression has been that the passport scanner is OK. However, the system still needs some fine-tuning while the waiting time should also be shortened”, says Timo Mäkelä, the deputy chief at the Vaalimaa border crossing station.<br />
In connection with a renovation, the Helsinki-Vantaa Airport is to have another ten scanners. By using such devices, the Finnish Border Guard is trying to ease the flow of border traffic, while at the same time moving officials from passport control to other jobs.<br />
”Actually, we have to do something, as traffic volumes are growing while our own personnel resources are declining”, notes Jaakko Hamunen, a head of unit at the Finnish Border Guard.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">At the Vaalimaa border crossing station, only a small part of travellers have been able to use an automatic passport scanner, as four in five of those crossing the border are nationals of Russia. Even though the self-service system has not been used very much, during peak hours the automatic scanner has eased congestion.<br />
On her trip to Russia to buy petrol, Sari Vapalahti from Hamina is trying the automatic scanner for the first time. The device takes a photo of her, and after a while, the gates open. ”This is quite handy, but I still prefer human beings to scanners”, Vapalahti notes. Timo Mäkelä does not believe that non-authorised arrivals could abuse the system.”On the contrary, I would venture to say that the risk of being exposed could be even greater”, Mäkelä claims.</p>

Este é um dos resultados apurados no Estudo de Avaliação da Qualidade Apercebida e Satisfação do Cartão de Cidadão, elaborado pela Secretaria de Estado da Modernização Administrativa em colaboração com o Instituto Superior de Estatística e Gestão de Informação, da Universidade Nova de Lisboa (ISEGI/UNL).<span id="more-1355"></span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Apresentado no passado dia 17 de Fevereiro, por altura em que se celebraram os três anos do lançamento do Cartão de Cidadão no Arquipélago dos Açores, este estudo teve como objectivo avaliar a qualidade apercebida e a satisfação tida com o Cartão de Cidadão e serviços associados, inquirindo portadores e não portadores do novo documento num total de 402 entrevistados distribuídos pelos dois grupos.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">As percepções dos utilizadores do Cartão de Cidadão são “positivas” ou “muito positivas”, destacando-se dimensões como a lealdade, a qualidade do serviço-balcão e avaliação global da iniciativa de criação do Cartão, com valores superiores a oito pontos (numa escala de 10 valores). Os entrevistados salientaram também a necessidade de melhorar a imagem do Cartão, por exemplo, tornando os números e as letras mais legíveis ou melhorando a qualidade da assinatura e da fotografia.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">No seu discurso durante a apresentação, a Secretária de Estado da Modernização Administrativa, Maria Manuel Leitão Marques, destacou que os resultados deste estudo mostram que “a satisfação dos portadores, aqueles que já recorreram ao serviço e já têm o seu Cartão, é significativamente superior à dos não portadores, ou seja aqueles que ouviram apenas falar dele, mesmo que estes também estejam satisfeitos”.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Apesar de satisfeitos, os entrevistados apresentaram um grande número de sugestões que fornecem importantes indicações para a melhoria dos serviços. Ficou clara a apetência pela utilização do Cartão do Cidadão para aceder a novos serviços através da Internet, destacando-se a marcação de consultas, o acesso a classificações escolares ou a mudança de morada em vários serviços ao mesmo tempo.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Para a Secretária de Estado, este estudo, numa altura em que já 2,8 milhões de cidadãos pediram o documento, revelou que “o Cartão excede as expectativas dos seus portadores e estes mostram-se disponíveis para o recomendar a quem não o tem”.</p>

<p style="text-align: justify;">O Sistema de Reconhecimento Automático de Passageiros Identificados Documentalmente (RAPID) é o primeiro sistema de controlo de fronteiras electrónico com reconhecimento facial e sem necessidade de qualquer outro registo, sendo apenas necessário o passaporte electrónico.<span id="more-1359"></span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Hoje foi assinada na Universidade do Algarve mais uma adenda ao protocolo de colaboração entre o Serviço de Estrangeiros e Fronteiras (SEF) e aquele estabelecimento de ensino, ao abrigo do projecto Fronteira Electrónica.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Concebido pelo Serviço de Estrangeiros e Fronteiras (SEF) e desenvolvido por uma empresa portuguesa, o RAPID foi instalado em fase experimental no Aeroporto de Faro em Abril de 2007 e começou a funcionar em pleno dois meses depois.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Vocacionado para proceder ao reconhecimento de passageiros que não pertencem ao Espaço Schengen, o RAPID está já em funcionamento nos aeroportos internacionais do País e nos aeroportos de Helsínquia, Finlândia, e Manchester, no Reino Unido.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">A terceira fase de avaliação do sistema será feita pelo Laboratório Empresarial da Faculdade de Ciências e Tecnologia (FCT) da UAlg e deverá estar concluída em meados de Abril, disse à Lusa uma das docentes envolvidas.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Segundo Isabel Leiria, o sistema reduz significativamente o tempo de espera dos passageiros na identificação, sendo o tempo médio para atravessar a fronteira com este sistema de quinze segundos.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">“Assim as pessoas não precisam de enfrentar filas e esperar que os agentes procedam à sua identificação”, disse Isabel Leiria, acrescentando que o sistema é também uma importante ferramenta para autoridades como o SEF.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Segundo disse à Lusa Edgar Beugels, da Agência Europeia de Fronteiras (Frontex), existem sistemas similares em Londres (Stansted) e Frankfurt e este ano irão também ser instalados em Madrid e Barcelona.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">
