What is the International System of Units (SI)?

✍️ The International System of Units is a global standard for expressing the magnitudes or quantities of important natural phenomena.

📌 Also referred to as the Metric system, the System of Units is commonly abbreviated as SI, which comes from the original French name, Système international d'unités.

📌 The SI standard builds on an earlier system of measurement called the meter-kilogram-second (MKS) system.

📌 The Bureau international des poids et mesures (BIPM) ⬆️ is responsible for promoting and describing the SI standard. Known as the International Bureau of Weights and Measures in English, the organization was established in 1875 and operates under the supervision of the International Committee for Weights and Measures (CIPM).

ℹ️ The International Treaty of the Meter was signed in Paris on May 20, 1875 by seventeen countries and is now celebrated around the globe as World Metrology Day.
