Fundamental measurement research on the SI and Open Excellence


In 2010 EURAMET’s European Metrology Research Programme (EMRP) launched a call for research on the International System of Units (SI) and open excellence.

The impact report on ‘Metrology for SI Broader Scope’ (SIB) and ‘Metrology for Open Excellence’ contains examples of the key technical achievements, summarises the measurement challenges and explores new measurement capabilities developed as a result of collaborations of National Metrology Institutes and Designated Institutes within these EMRP projects.
