Metresbased
Metresbased is a term used in some technical and design contexts to describe systems, datasets, or methodologies that treat the metre as the base unit of length. The word combines metre, the standard unit of length in the metric system, with basing to signal that measurements are anchored to this unit. It is not a formal standard and its usage varies across disciplines.
In practice, metresbased conventions appear in metrology, engineering, geography, and computer modeling. For example, spatial datasets
Benefits of adopting a metresbased approach include improved consistency in length measurements, easier interoperability when exchanging
Best practices for employing metresbased conventions include explicit unit metadata, consistent use of the metre across
