Dear Rail Delivery Group,

I would like to be able to read a ticket barcode for the purpose of automating and simplifying the data capture of ticket details such as journey origin, destination, ticket price and other encoded values on the ticket barcode.

An example use case is to simplify company expense claims by capturing ticket details from a paper ticket or printed e-ticket submitted by an employee. Currently this can be done by using optical character recognition but it is error prone and requires manual correction in many cases. By reading the data encoded in the barcode and taking advantage of the error correction capability of the Aztec barcode, it will be possible to simplify and automate data capture.

Yours faithfully,
Stuart Bain
