Measurement Type

Concepts

The Measurement Type defines the type of a measure e.g. mass or currency. The Measurement Type groups all Measurement Units, which can be converted into each other. A Measurement Type can have a standard Measurement Unit, which can be used for conversion between different Measurement Units.

There need not be any standard Measurement Unit for a given Measurement Type e.g. currency. Each Measurement Type has as a standard at most one Measurement Unit.
