Example data for the automated evaluation of a key comparison on gauge blocks applying the Digital Calibration Certificate (DCC) and Digital Metrological Expert (DME)

The example data are an outcome of a project on a fully automated evaluation of a key comparison on gauge blocks applying the Digital Calibration Certificate (DCC) and Digital Metrological Expert (DME). The data present the first demonstration of the capabilities of the DME for evaluating interlaboratory comparison results in the field of dimensional measurements. The file ReportVirtualLengthComparison.xml represents the result evaluated by the DME software. The additional files provide the input datasets from all participants of the comparison. The dataset named “Outlier” contains synthetic input data where measurement values have a substantial offset compared to the other input data sets. It is anticipated that the DME evaluation will identify this dataset as an outlier and exclude values from the analysis.
