What is Verification or Grading?
Verification is the measurement of the quality of a linear
(1D) barcode according to an agreed methodology. The
purpose of verification is to ensure that barcodes can be
subsequently read with the intended reading equipment.
Verification is sometimes referred to as grading.
Why Verify?
1D barcode verification is used to ensure that automatic
identification equipment such as barcode scanners
and imagers will be able to read barcodes quickly and
efficiently throughout the life cycle of a product or its
packaging. Ideally this is achieved by monitoring the
quality of the barcode close to the point of marking so as
to detect problems as soon as possible.

Quality Standards for 1D Codes
ISO 15416 (formally ANSI X3.182-1990) is a standard
that applies to 1D barcodes such as Code 128, ITF, and
UPC. ISO 15416 is the standard referenced in the GS1
General Specification. In some circumstances, such as
where a barcode is used within a manufacturing process,
“custom grading” which departs from the ISO standard
may be appropriate.
ISO/ANSI Grade Scales
A = 4.0 – 3.5
B = <3.5 - >= 2.5
C = <2.5 - >= 1.5
D = <1.5 - >= 0.5
F = <0.5 - 0.00

GRADE A SYMBOL EXAMPLE

Note: ISO reports numeric grades but many specifications use letters.

What is Verification or Grading?
Verification is the measurement of the quality of a 2D
symbol, such as Data Matrix, according to an agreed
methodology. The purpose of verification is to ensure that
barcodes and symbols can be subsequently read with the
intended reading equipment. Verification is sometimes
referred to as grading.
Why Verify?
2D symbol verification is used to ensure that automatic
identification equipment such as barcode imagers will be
able to read symbols quickly and efficiently throughout
the life cycle of a product or its packaging. Ideally this is
achieved by monitoring the quality of the symbol close to
the point of marking so as to detect problems as soon
as possible.

Quality Standards for 2D Symbols
There are two principal standards for 2D Data Matrix
symbols. ISO 15415 is most applicable to high contrast
printed symbols, while the AIM DPM 2006 Guidelines are
designed for direct part marked (DPM) symbols. In some
circumstances, such as where a barcode is used within a
manufacturing process, “custom grading” which departs
from the ISO standard may be appropriate.
ISO/ANSI Grade Scales
A = 4.0 – 3.5
B = <3.5 - >= 2.5
C = <2.5 - >= 1.5
D = <1.5 - >= 0.5
F = <0.5 - 0.00
