Quarry Load Ticket OCR
Digitize aggregate and quarry tickets with material, customer, job, vehicle, and validated load-weight data in one response.
Quarry Tickets Tie Production to Billing
A quarry ticket is simultaneously a scale record, delivery reference, material movement, and billing input. Material descriptions and codes may be abbreviated; customer and job identifiers can appear near the header; gross, tare, and net rows may be printed in different units or sequences. Manual entry creates delays between the scale house, dispatch, production reporting, and accounts receivable.
A Quarry-Aware Load Ticket Workflow
The API can classify a document as quarry_load_ticket and capture the identifiers required to connect the load with downstream systems. It preserves the printed material and weight data while a deterministic validation layer checks gross minus tare. The same scale ticket OCR API works across quarry sites, and the live scanner lets a team evaluate its own layouts before deployment.

Practical Workflows
Aggregate Dispatch
Associate the vehicle and load ticket with a customer, order, and destination workflow.
Production Reporting
Summarize normalized net weight by material code, scale, or facility.
Billing Preparation
Create reviewable transaction records before generating invoices.
Haulier Reconciliation
Compare ticket numbers and net weights with carrier and delivery records.
Technical Specs
- Endpoint: POST /v1/weighbridge-ticket
- Authentication: x-api-key request header
- Input: Base64 or data URI in JSON; JPG, PNG, WebP, or PDF
- Maximum decoded size: 4.5MB
- Cost: 2 credits per successful request
- Output: Structured JSON with deterministic weight validation
Key Features
- Quarry classification: Identifies supported quarry load tickets within the broader ticket family.
- Material extraction: Captures printed material description and code without inventing a mapping.
- Job context: Separates job and order numbers from the ticket identifier.
- Weight control: Exposes normalized values and gross-minus-tare validation for review.
Send a Ticket to the OCR API
The REST endpoint accepts one Base64-encoded JPG, PNG, WebP, or PDF in the JSON img property. Allow a 60-second client timeout and inspect the validation object before accepting a record.
import base64
import requests
with open("weighbridge-ticket.jpg", "rb") as file:
image = base64.b64encode(file.read()).decode("ascii")
response = requests.post(
"https://api.structocr.com/v1/weighbridge-ticket",
headers={"x-api-key": "YOUR_API_KEY", "Content-Type": "application/json"},
json={"img": image},
timeout=60,
)
response.raise_for_status()
result = response.json()
data = result["data"]
print("ticket_number:", data["ticket_number"])
print("parties.customer:", data["parties"]["customer"])
print("job.job_number:", data["job"]["job_number"])
print("vehicle.registration:", data["vehicle"]["registration"])
print("material.description:", data["material"]["description"])
print("weights.net.normalized_kg:", data["weights"]["net"]["normalized_kg"])
print("validation.needs_review:", data["validation"]["needs_review"])Validated JSON Response
A successful response contains extracted evidence and a separate validation decision for downstream automation.

}Frequently Asked Questions
Does the API support aggregate and quarry ticket layouts?
Yes. Quarry load tickets are a supported classification. Unknown valid layouts can still return the generic weighbridge ticket schema.
Will the API map a material code to my product catalog?
It extracts the printed code and description. Your application should map those values to its own controlled material catalog.
Which files can I submit?
The endpoint accepts Base64-encoded JPG, PNG, WebP, and PDF content up to 4.5MB. Public URLs and multipart uploads are not currently accepted by the REST endpoint.
How much does one successful request cost?
A successful weighbridge ticket extraction costs 2 credits. New accounts receive 200 free credits, enough for up to 100 initial scans.
When is it safe to accept a ticket automatically?
Define the rule in your own workflow. A conservative starting point is to require is_weighbridge_ticket and is_valid to be true, confidence to meet your threshold, and validation.needs_review to be false. Keep a human review route for all other results.
Should I use the REST API or an SDK?
Use the REST API from any backend that can send Base64 JSON. The official Python and Node.js SDKs are convenient when you want local file validation, Base64 encoding, and consistent request handling without writing that plumbing yourself.
