Online Webinar
Joint IMEKO TC6 and OIML DTG webinar on blockchain technologies in metrology
In recent years, several initiatives have been started to investigate the potential use of distributed ledger, also known as blockchain, technologies in metrology. Proposed applications range from making traceability in calibration hierarchies more transparent and efficient to distributed infrastructures for processes in the quality infrastructure.
The IMEKO TC6 "Digitalisation" and the OIML "Digitalisation Task Group" are jointly organising a webinar on this topic on 29th March 2023 from 11:00 to 14:00 UTC.
The aim is to bring together experts and interested colleagues from metrology, legal metrology and the general quality infrastrucure for an exchange and discussion on this topic. It is also intend to take this webinar as a starting point for a regular exchange aiming for harmonisation and interoperability of developments in the long run.
