Quality Assurance of Measurements from Field to Laboratory (2013)

The Eurachem Workshop on Quality Assurance of Measurements from Field to Laboratory was held in Finland on 20-21 May in 2013. The topics of the workshop focussed on two main subjects: on challenges of measurements related to nanotechnology and on challenges related to on-site/on-line measurements. The workshop comprised of lectures and a poster session.

Available presentations from the workshop are available from the links below. A summary of the attendance and scientific proceedings is also available [View summary]

Venue

The workshop was held at the Centre for Metrology and Accreditation, MIKES, in Espoo (address: Tekniikantie 1, 02151 Espoo) about 9 km from the centre of Helsinki.
