Happy World Metrology Day!

May 20th every year is a rocking day. Know why?

It’s World Metrology Day!

Celebrate by checking out of metrology related posts.

And celebrate today by only accepting valid measurements.

According to www.worldmetrologyday.org

Welcome to the 2013 World Metrology Day web site. This year, the theme is “Measurements in daily life” – again we have chosen a wide-ranging topic which concerns everyone in a multitude of situations.

World Metrology Day celebrates the signature by representatives of seventeen nations of the Metre Convention on 20 May 1875. The Convention set the framework for global collaboration in the science of measurement and in its industrial, commercial and societal application. The original aim of the Metre Convention – the worldwide uniformity of measurement – remains as important today as it was in 1875.

The World Metrology Day project is realized jointly by the BIPM and the OIML. We hope that you enjoy this site and that your Country or Metrology Organization will join us and participate in this year’s event.

Warm regards,

The WMD Team
