MaxiCode
Predominantly used by United Parcel Service to
sort mail at high speed, MaxiCode is well suited to
being read quickly and often in any direction. MaxiCode
is a fixed-size 2D matrix barcode symbology having
866 hexagonal elements arranged in 33 rows around a
central finder pattern. The size of a MaxiCode symbol
is 1.1 inch by 1.05 inch. A single MaxiCode symbol
can encode up to 93 characters of data and uses five
different code sets to encode all 256 ASCII characters.
MaxiCode uses three unique properties when encoding
the data: Class of Service, Country Code, and Mode.
