7811 ''Identification cards — Recording technique'' is a set of nine (7811-1 to 7811-9) standards describing the recording technique on identification cards.
It comprises:
"Part 1" ''
Embossing''
"Part 2" ''
Magnetic stripe
The term digital card can refer to a physical item, such as a memory card on a camera, or, increasingly since 2017, to the digital content hosted
as a virtual card or cloud card, as a digital virtual representation of a physical card. They share ...
— Low
coercivity
Coercivity, also called the magnetic coercivity, coercive field or coercive force, is a measure of the ability of a ferromagnetic material to withstand an external magnetic field without becoming demagnetized. Coercivity is usually measured in ...

"Part 3" ''Location of embossed characters on
ID-1 ID-1 or ID1 may refer to:RECN7701159Q8
* ID-1 format, the standard "credit card" size for identification cards defined by ISO/IEC 7810
* A gene ( inhibitor of DNA binding-1) which controls cancer metastasis

cards''
Part 3 is already withdrawn and revised by Part 1.
"Part 4" ''Location of read-only magnetic tracks — Tracks 1 and 2''
Part 4 is already withdrawn and revised by Part 2.
''Location of read-write magnetic track — Track 3''
Part 5 is already withdrawn and revised by Part 2.
''Magnetic stripe — High coercivity''
''Magnetic stripe — High coercivity, high density''
Allows capacity 10 times that of a card conforming to Part 6.
''Magnetic stripe -- Coercivity of 51,7 kA/m (650 Oe)''
(including any protective overlay)
''Tactile identifier mark''
Specifies the physical characteristics of a tactile identifier mark used by visually impaired card holders to distinguish their cards.
