units in icat
I think i need your input @denolf, @sole, @demariaa, @andy.gotz:
Is there a policy how to handle units in icat? Lets take attenuator01
as example with the following metadata pushed to icat:
"InstrumentAttenuator01_status": "in",
"InstrumentAttenuator01_thickness": "200",
"InstrumentAttenuator01Positioners_value": "2.5",
"InstrumentAttenuator01Positioners_name": "att1z",
"InstrumentAttenuator01_type": "Al",
now, where (how) do I have to put the unit of InstrumentAttenuator01_thickness
? for bliss/Nexus/hdf5 we have "thickness@unit": "um"
.
In other words do I have to push
"InstrumentAttenuator01_thickness": "200"
or "InstrumentAttenuator01_thickness": "200 um"
?
the same question would be valid for
"InstrumentAttenuator01Positioners_value": "2.5"
which could also be "InstrumentAttenuator01Positioners_value": "2.5 mm"
