Progress and promotion of the international interchange of information on sensing technologies

Fields of measurement can be divided into three categories such as scientific measurement, industrial measurement and legal metrology. At present, IMEKO(International Measurement Confederation) has more than twenty Technical Committees(TCs), and they cover almost all categories mentioned above. TCs of IMEKO have been founded from two kinds of view points. One is the specific quantities to be studied and the other is technologies or fields to be applied. In each view point, fundamental intellectual infrastructures including sensing technologies are effectively examined in order to obtain reliable information and measurement data.
