Abstract

Sheet material useful to form a coded retroreflective mark comprises a retroreflective base sheet and a cover film adhered over the base sheet and precut to form a plurality of removable sections. The cut sections are arranged in a predetermined pattern such that removal of different sections to expose the retroreflective sheeting under the sections provides different codes that may be read and distinguished by photoscanning equipment.
