Measurement and analysis, meaning the ability to observe, measure, and analyze, are essential to the progress of science and society. Many new scientific discoveries were brought about by advances in measurement and analysis technologies, and they are collectively described as the “Mother of Science.” In industry, a wide range of measurement and analysis technologies are used in everything from research and development to actual production where they underpin things like the development of new technologies and improvements in product quality. Measurement and analysis serve as a platform for innovation and the creation of innovative solutions, contributing to the progress of society by advancing a variety of fields such as the environment, renewable energy, new materials, life sciences, and electronics.
