Aztec Code

 Aztec Code is a 2D symbol with a bulls-eye pattern at the center to locate the code. The orientation marks at the corners of the code allow the code to be read if rotated in any direction. With an Aztec Code reader, the amount of Reed-Solomon error correction is between 20% and 40% of the data in the code. Like other 2D Matrix symbologies, the size of the Aztec Code depends on the amount of data contained within the code.
