An overlay target includes a first plurality of features arranged along a first longitudinal axis in a first line-space pattern having a first line width, and a second plurality of features arranged along a second longitudinal axis in a second line-space pattern having a second line width that is less than the first line width. The second longitudinal axis is aligned substantially parallel to the first longitudinal axis.
