This Technical Committee's objective is to provide a forum for an international exchange of opinions among experts in the relevant field, in order to share, on a worldwide level, knowledge and experience, which could enable comparability and compatibility among the measurements and calibrations carried out in all regions. To pursue this goal, we organize symposia, workshops, round table sessions, and activities in pressure measuring techniques, sensor and instrument design, calibration procedures, comparisons, uncertainty evaluation, and other related applications.
