Imports Inlite.ClearImageNet '. Recommended best practices The image quality of the barcode on the back of the driver license image is lower quality than for scanned document. Licenses are covered by a relatively thick laminated coating that diffuses the images and may be scratched or smudged. The ClearImage DL/ID Reader employs multiple image processing techniques to deal with the most difficult images attuned to read the specific barcode found on the back of the licenses.
Inlite recommends the following best practices to achieve the highest recognition rate and recognition speed:. Scan driver license as grayscale at a resolution of 300dpi. If needed image can be saved for archival purposes at different resolution and color using the ClearImage API.
If using a camera, then. Use 3-5 Mega Pixel setting. Take the picture head on to keep the barcode rectangular. Avoid flash or shadows. Even illumination is best. Avoid using low-quality JPEG compression when saving images.
Set the highest JPEG quality possible. Use these to mitigate effects of JPEG blocking. Example of Driver License reader XML output The following example shows the typical (California) barcode contents as provided by the DL/ID reader. The available contents varies from state to state, and between generations of licenses.
Reading is actually the easy part. Most of you on this blog are pretty keen and might’ve picked up on how the raw data in that string worked and thought, “I could parse that!” As mentioned previously, the biggest catch out there is adoption. It’s one thing to figure out how to parse some values from a long text string, but writing them out correctly and following the AAMVA spec is what’s really holding states and countries back.
LEADTOOLS makes it incredibly easy to make sure your data follows the specifications, AND can write the barcode. So get out there and code something that’s so easy, even a sloth can do it!

The American Association of Motor Vehicle Administrators ( AAMVA) is a non-governmental, voluntary, tax-exempt, nonprofit educational association. AAMVA is a private corporation which strives to develop model programs in motor vehicle administration, police traffic services, and highway safety. The association serves as an information clearinghouse for these same disciplines, and acts as the international spokesperson for these interests.
The association is composed of Motor Vehicle and Law Enforcement Administrators and Executives from all 50 states, the District of Columbia, and Canadian Territories and Provinces. Although Canadian jurisdictions are members of AAMVA, Canada also has a distinctly separate but similar organization, the Canadian Council of Motor Transport Administrators (CCMTA), which more directly establishes governance of driver & vehicle matters for provinces and territories. At least two Mexican states have been AAMVA members at some time. Virgin Islands are current members of AAMVA as well as the District of Columbia. The association is divided into four separate regions, primarily by geography, encompassing all North American members. Each region holds annual meetings with the entire membership meeting once per year.
Within the membership are committees and task forces which meet typically on a quarterly basis. Contents. Methodology As an association representing the state and provincial officials in the United States and Canada who administer and enforce motor vehicle laws, AAMVA facilitates communication and fosters standardization among member jurisdictions concerning traffic safety, titling of motor vehicles, and licensing drivers.
AAMVA represents its U.S. And Canadian membership by working collaboratively to support and improve motor vehicle administration, safety, identification security and law enforcement. AAMVA also communicates the consensus views of members to the public, state legislatures, Congress, and other organizations such as the American Trucking Association, the National Conference of State Legislatures, and the National Governors Organization. Some of the items found in AAMVA's policy statements include:. states' participation in the proposed. passing laws against Radar/Laser Detectors and Jammers. regulating tinted windows.
states issuing front/back license plates The AAMVA also publishes the technical standards for compliant with the Real ID Act including anti- measures and technologies such as a on the reverse side. The AAMVA also operates the, which is a system that enables jurisdictions to exchange commercial driver information, including out-of-state convictions, in accordance with the Commercial Motor Vehicle Safety Act and the Motor Carrier Safety Improvement Act.
AAMVA also supports the Problem Driver Pointer System, which is a system that enables jurisdictions to report serious convictions and withdrawals of drivers to the National Driver Register operated by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. AAMVA also oversees the International Registration Plan. They provide staff support to the Joint Executive Board for the and and the. AAMVA also maintains the which enables vehicle titling agencies to verify the information on a title with the issuing state's electronic records in order to reduce vehicle theft and fraud. The specified that the information within NMVTIS be available to federal, state, and local law enforcement officials, insurance carriers, and other prospective purchasers (e.g., individuals, auction companies, and used car dealers). By making this information available across jurisdictions, forms of title fraud such as 'title washing' are reduced.
Title washing occurs when the condition of a vehicle due to flood, junk, or salvage (known as a 'brand'), as previously documented by a state, is lost when the title travels to another state putting an unsuspecting buyer at risk of paying more than a vehicle is worth or operating a vehicle inadequately repaired and potentially unsafe to drive. History The organization came into existence in 1933 with the idea of standardizing driver's licensing and traffic laws.
In more recent years, AAMVA has pushed very hard for the one driver, one license, one record concept as found in the and the newly created, especially since the events of. Meetings Each year, the administration holds a meeting somewhere in the U.S., with the state hosting making special license plates for all attendees. References.

- Barry Rogers, Air & Waste Management Association, Pittsburgh, PA Approximately 850 characters can be with the PDF417 barcode symbology. High means that large amounts of text and data can be stored in a PDF417 barcode. Because the 2D PDF417 font uses Reed Solomon error correction, it can withstand some damage without loss of data. This high-level error correction results in a and is far more advanced than linear barcodes, which use check digits. PDF417 Barcode Types Supported In addition to PDF417, this package supports, which allows additional data to be encoded by dividing the data into multiple symbols, as well as, which decreases the horizontal size of the symbol by two columns. Is similar to PDF417, although it is only provided in a limited selection of IDAutomation's products.
'IDAutomation offered the only product on the market that could produce AAMVA PDF417 barcodes correctly.' - Bryan Kaplan, Collaborative Fusion, Inc., Pittsburgh, PA Advanced PDF417 Font Design This PDF417 font uses IDAutomation Vertical Interleaved Technology™ to provide improved performance and printing at a smaller X dimension than competitor's products. The design of the font allows accurate printing from any point size when used with compatible scanners and printers. For example, PDF417 barcodes generated with a 600 DPI LaserJet at 4 points will yield consistent scans with a. The font should be printed at 8 to 10 points for most applications.
