Image Quality Analysis (IQA)
Image Quality Analysis (IQA) in check processing software refers to the process of assessing the clarity, accuracy, and completeness of images of checks. It ensures that the images meet required standards for readability, alignment, and resolution, which is crucial for effective processing, fraud detection, and compliance with banking regulations. IQA helps prevent errors and ensures that checks can be properly cleared or deposited, particularly in compliance with Check 21 regulations, which allow for the electronic processing of checks.
Key points:
- Ensures image clarity for accurate reading of check details (e.g., account numbers, signatures).
- Verifies alignment and resolution to meet industry standards for processing.
- Detects defects like smudges, distortions, or incomplete images that may affect processing.
- Improves fraud prevention by ensuring images are clear and legible for verification.
- Supports compliance with Check 21 regulations, allowing for electronic check processing.
- Helps streamline check clearing and reduce manual intervention, increasing efficiency.
