What is an Aztec Code?

Aztec Code is a two-dimensional matrix barcode named after the resemblance of its central finder pattern to an Aztec pyramid. It can encode large amounts of data in a compact space and doesn't require a surrounding quiet zone, making it ideal for applications where space is limited. Aztec codes are commonly used in the transportation industry.
