METROLOGY FOR IMPROVED MEASUREMENTS IN INTERNATIONAL REGULATION AND TRADE: THE REGMET AND METROTRADE PROJECTS
Fiona Redgrave, Andy Henson, Diane Beauvais
Abstract:
The operation of the economy on a global scale and the quality of life for the individual citizen depends on reliable measurements and tests, which are trusted and accepted internationally. The European Commission is supporting two projects linking measurement, regulation, trade and commerce under the Competitive and Sustainable Growth thematic Programme in the Fifth Framework Programme. This paper describes the aims and some findings of the RegMet and MetroTrade projects, including the concept of the development of a measurement template for regulators.
