The 2022 World Metrology Day Resource Website is now live. The theme this year is Metrology in the Digital Era.

This theme was chosen because digital technology is revolutionizing our community and is one of the most exciting trends in society today. The adoption of digital technology is transforming metrology by improving processes and opening new opportunities.

World Metrology Day is an annual celebration of the signature of the Metre Convention on 20 May 1875 by representatives of seventeen nations. It is organized jointly by the Bureau International des Poids et Mesures (BIPM) and the International Organization of Legal Metrology (OIML) to recognize and celebrate the contribution of all the people that work in intergovernmental and national metrology organizations and institutes throughout the year.

Each year World Metrology Day is prepared in collaboration with one of the Regional Metrology Organizations. The poster for 2022 was designed under the auspices of COOMET by the NSC “Institute of Metrology” (Ukraine).

Further information on World Metrology Day, including a message from the Directors of the two organizations, posters, and a list of events, is available at:
