Data Parsers

Barcodes, especially the two-dimensional ones, e.g. data matrices and QR codes, are often used to encode structured data or documents. This structured data can be parsed into document-like data structures that let you access the data fields conveniently, for example Swiss QR-Codes, SEPA forms, medical plans, boarding passes, medical certificates and vCard addresses.

The following data parsers are currently supported:

  • AAMVA: Parse the AAMVA data format from PDF-417 barcodes on US driver’s licenses.
  • Boarding pass data from PDF-417 barcodes.
  • Parser for German Medical Certificates (aka. Disability Certificate or AU-Bescheinigung) coded in a PDF-417 barcode.
  • GS1 encoded data from barcodes.
  • Data from PDF-417 barcodes on ID Cards.
  • Parse and extract data from XML of Data Matrix barcodes on Medical Plans (German Medikationsplan).
  • Data parser of QR-Code values printed on SEPA pay forms.
  • vCard data from a QR-Code (e.g. on business cards).
  • Swiss QR data from a QR-Code for easy, automatic and efficient payments.
