Abstract

In order to allow vehicles to be identified at a distance, the present invention provides a vehicle identification system comprising at least one identification pattern, which is suitably a 2-D barcode (1) attached to a vehicle (3), and at least one imaging device (4) for imaging the identification pattern, the imaging device being capable of reading the identification pattern at a range of not less than 30m. According to another aspect of the invention, the machine readable coded identification comprises a two-dimensional bar code comprising a grid of cells, the smallest dimension of the grid being not less than 300mm, the cells having a least dimension not less than 10mm.
