The Coordinate Metrology Society is opening up one of the most valuable collections of practical 3D metrology knowledge in the industry. Along with its new website, CMS is launching an expanded Technical Paper Archive with more than 140 papers presented at the Coordinate Metrology Society Conference.
The papers were written by end users, researchers, and technology providers. They cover real-world applications across aerospace, shipbuilding, automotive, energy, and defense, as well as measurement uncertainty, large-volume metrology, scanning, automation, and emerging technologies.
How access works:
- CMS members: Download any paper free of charge
- Non-members: Purchase individual papers for $125 each
- Becoming a member: Members get unlimited free downloads plus other benefits (see Membership)
“This archive represents decades of hard-won lessons from people who measure things for a living,” said Bob Elliott, Executive Committee President. “Making it searchable and easy to access is one of the best things we can do for the metrology community.”
New papers from future conferences will be added to the archive each year. Browse the collection now on the Technical Paper Archive page.

About the Coordinate Metrology Society Conference
The Coordinate Metrology Society Conference (CMSC) is the world’s premier event for Measurement Technology Professionals sponsored by the Coordinate Metrology Society. Established in 1984, the five-day annual conference is held each year at a different location, and attracts visitors from around the globe. CMSC is acclaimed for its comprehensive program of top-shelf white papers and applications presentations given by industry experts from science/research laboratories and manufacturing industries, such as aerospace, space hardware, antenna, automotive, shipbuilding, power generation, and general engineering. No other trade show rivals the high level of authoritative information provided by CMSC members and master users of industrial dimensional metrology solutions for quality control, quality production, and precision assembly.
