EXPLANATION OF THE ISO PARAMETERS • The parameters which are measured according to the method described in ISO/IEC 15415 for 2D matrix barcodes results in a grade for each parameter, with a grade of 4 being the best and a grade of 0 being a fail.

An elongation in one direction compared to the other results in a poor grade. • Grid non-uniformity is the worst case positional error of the centre of a module from its ideal grid position.
