The survey
As future leaders in metrology, SIM and other regional metrology organizations (RMOs) invited young meteorologists to participate in a foresight exercise to seek their vision of what metrology will look like. Foresighting helps us identify emerging trends and technologies, and to anticipate new challenges and opportunities. The results of this exercise will complement the CIPM Strategy 2030+.
As part of this exercise, a questionnaire was developed to start the process and to get your initial ideas on the vision for metrology in 2050+. The survey intended to:
- Use young metrologists´ knowledge and expertise to identify emerging trends and technologies that could impact metrology in 2050+.
- Consider the societal, economic, and environmental factors that may drive these changes and how they may influence the future of metrology.
- Collaborate with other experts in your field of metrology, exchange ideas, and explore different scenarios.
The ideas raised will be presented on 20 May 2025, the 150th anniversary of the signing of the Metre Convention on 20 May 2025.
We thank every SIM young metrologist who participated in the survey!!!
