What is metrology?

In short, metrology is the science of measurement. It is the process to establish weights and measures as the basis for accurate measurements worldwide To measure anything accurately – hence to obtain a measurement result or assign a value that is as true, correct or exact as possible – and for this measurement to be repeated anywhere in the world and yield an accurate result, a system of units such as the International System of Units, the SI, is needed.
