Cambodian ID Card

Function

This API detects and extracts text from images of Cambodia-issued ID cards and converts the text into a structured format. For details about the constraints on using this API, see Constraints and Limitations. For details about how to use this API, see Introduction to OCR.

Constraints and Limitations

  • Currently, only the front of an ID card can be recognized each time.
  • Only images in PNG, JPG, BMP, or TIFF format can be recognized.
  • No side of the image can be smaller than 15 or larger than 8,192 pixels.
  • An ID card can be rotated to any angle.
  • Illuminated or dark images can be recognized, but the accuracy may be compromised.

Calling Method

For details, see Calling APIs.

Prerequisites

Before using this API, subscribe to the service and complete authentication. For details, see Subscribing to an OCR Service and Authentication.

Before using the service for the first time, you need to enable the service by clicking Subscribe. You only need to subscribe to the service once. If you have not subscribed to the service yet, error "ModelArts.4204" will be displayed when you call this API. Before you call the API, log in to the OCR console and subscribe to the corresponding service. Ensure that you make the subscription to the service in the same region where you want to call this API.

URI

POST /v2/{project_id}/ocr/cambodian-idcard

Table 1 URI parameters

Parameter

Mandatory

Description

endpoint

Yes

Endpoint, which is the request address for calling an API.

The endpoint varies depending on services in different regions. For more details, see Endpoints.

project_id

Yes

Project ID, which can be obtained by referring to Obtaining a Project ID.

Request Parameters

Table 2 Request header parameters

Parameter

Mandatory

Type

Description

X-Auth-Token

Yes

String

User token

Used to obtain the permission to call APIs. The token is the value of X-Subject-Token in the response header in Authentication.

Content-Type

Yes

String

MIME type of the request body. The value is application/json.

Enterprise-Project-Id

No

String

Enterprise project ID. OCR uses Enterprise Project Management Service (EPS) to split fees for resources used by different user groups and users.

To obtain the enterprise project ID, go to the Enterprise Project Management console, click the enterprise project name, and obtain the enterprise project ID on the enterprise project details page.

For details about how to create an enterprise project, see Optical Character Recognition User Guide.

NOTE:

After an enterprise project is created, parameter transfer involves the following scenarios:

  • If a correct enterprise project ID is carried and the OCR service can be used properly, the bills are allocated to the enterprise project corresponding to the ID.
  • If an incorrect enterprise project ID is carried and the OCR service can be used properly, the enterprise project in the bills is allocated to Non-project.
  • If no enterprise project ID is carried and the OCR service can be used properly, the enterprise project in the bills is allocated to Non-project.
Table 3 Request body parameters

Parameter

Mandatory

Type

Description

image

No

String

Set either this parameter or url.

Base64 code of an image. No side of the image can be smaller than 15 or larger than 8,192 pixels. Only images in JPG, PNG, BMP, or TIFF format can be recognized.

An example is /9j/4AAQSkZJRgABAg.... If the image data contains an unnecessary prefix, the error "The image format is not supported" is reported.

url

No

String

Set either this parameter or image.

URL of the image file. Currently, URLs for anonymously and publicly authorized or external access to image files stored on OBS are supported.

return_portrait_image

No

Boolean

Whether to return the Base64 code of the portrait on the ID card image. The options are as follows:

  • true: The Base64 code of the portrait on the ID card will be returned.
  • false: The Base64 code of the portrait on the ID card will not be returned.

If this parameter is not specified, false is used by default. In this case, the Base64 code of the portrait on the ID card will not be returned.

return_portrait_location

No

Boolean

Whether to return the position coordinates of the portrait on the ID card image. The options are as follows:

  • true: The location of the portrait on the ID card will be returned.
  • false: The location of the portrait on the ID card will not be returned.

If this parameter is not specified, false is used by default. In this case, the location of the portrait on the ID card will not be returned.

return_idcard_type

No

Boolean

Whether to return the ID card type. The options are as follows:

  • true: The ID card type will be returned, indicating that the ID card is the original ID card or copy of the original ID card.
  • false: The ID card type will not be returned.
