What is quantitative & qualitative friction ridge analysis?

The analysis of friction ridge skin taking into consideration both quality and quantity of detail present. The quality of the detail present is determined by the clarity of the impression. The relationship between quantity and quality is an inverse relationship: the better the quality of the impression, the less detail is needed to consider an area of value.
