Summary

Metrology in Europe is a comprehensive field that is shaped by various international organizations such as WELMEC and European Accreditation. World metrology is based on the meter convention and is also supported by international cooperation, the South Caucasus, Central Asia and sub-Saharan Africa as well as Latin America and the Caribbean. The International Office acts as the central coordinator for this collaboration, while collaborations with universities such as the Leibniz University of Hannover and the Technical University of Braunschweig are important. A solid alumni network is crucial as external researchers experienced the use of PTB grocers. There are specific networks in the individual regions, such as Europe, the South Caucasus or North Africa. In addition, the use of PTB equipment by external researchers is of greatest importance. The PTB in Braunschweig and Berlin provides valuable data by extending into atomic clocks and researching questions on the fundamentals of physical units in the nano world.
