Additional information

This is the result of joint research between metrology research groups at National Physical Laboratory (NPL), Bath University under EPSRC grant EP/E00184X/1 (£7,290,747), and Politecnico di Torino. High value manufacturing companies constantly review the capability of their production systems to enhance their accuracy and reliability. In this regard this research formed the basis for a comprehensive capability study of a new metrology system, Indoor-GPS. This study led to a one year joint industrial project between NPL, Airbus UK, and Metris (now Nikon Metrology), the result of which is produced in a publically available NPL report.
