They are often only recognised, however, when we take a much closer look. Take, for example, the scales at the supermarket check-out, the fuel volume measurement at the filling station pump, temperature measurement, velocity, flow volume and thermal energy, taxi meters etc. The wide variety of available quantities to be measured and measuring devices clearly illustrates the complex interplay between the quantity to be measured and the measuring device used.<\/p>\n<p>What does &#8220;accurate&#8221;
