2017年世界计量日的主题海报
日前,世界计量组织公布了2017年世界计量日的主题,2017年世界计量日主题为“运输中的计量”。
The theme for World Metrology Day 2017 is Measurements for transport. This theme was chosen because transport plays such a key role in the modern world. We not only move ourselves, but also the food we eat, the clothes we wear, the goods we use and rely on, not forgetting the raw materials they are made from. Doing so safely, efficiently and with minimal environmental impact requires an astonishing range of measurements.
Indeed more widely metrology, the science of measurement, plays a central role in scientific discovery and innovation, industrial manufacturing and international trade, in improving the quality of life and in protecting the global environment.
World Metrology Day is an annual celebration of the signature of the Metre Convention on 20 May 1875 by representatives of seventeen nations. The Convention set the framework for global collaboration in the science of measurement and in its industrial, commercial and societal applications. The original aim of the Metre Convention - the world-wide uniformity of measurement - remains as important today as it was in 1875.
The World Metrology Day project is realized jointly by the BIPM and the OIML. We hope that you enjoy this site and that your Country or Metrology Organization will join us and participate in this years event.
2017年世界计量日的主题是“运输中的计量”。选择这个主题是因为运输在现代社会中扮演了一个非常关键的角色。我们不仅可以运输自己,还可以运输我们吃的、穿的、用的和依赖的其他商品,更不用说制造这些商品的原材料。为了让运输安全、高效并对环境影响最小,我们所需要的计量种类多得惊人。
实际上,计量学作为一门测量科学,普遍在科学发现和创新、工业制造和国际贸易、提高生活质量和保护地球环境方面发挥着核心作用。
1875年5月20日,17个国家的代表共同签名成立了米制公约组织,为了纪念这个组织的成立,特发起了世界计量日的年度庆祝活动。该公约组织为测量科学以及应用测量科学的工业、商业和社会应用中的全球合作设定了框架。米制公约组织的最初目标是在世界范围内保持测量一致性,在今天这个目标仍然与1875年一样起着重要作用。
世界计量日项目由BIPM和OIML共同承办。我们希望你能在这个网站上共同庆祝这个节日,你的国家或计量组织也能够加入我们的年度庆祝行列。
