(ISO: Geneva) -- Digital technologies such as artificial intelligence, big data, and machine learning are increasingly important to the manufacturing industry. Just imagine the implications on metrology—the science of measurement.

“Metrology in the Digital Era” is the theme of this year’s World Metrology Day, celebrated annually on May 20. The theme was chosen because digital technology is revolutionizing metrology and is one of the most exciting trends in society today. Accurate and fair data is an important cornerstone of the digital development of science and technology. The resulting high-quality data, based on measurement standards, are the key to taking our industry to the next level in the digital milestone.

In turn, this contributes to innovation, product agility, and sustainability.”
