The institution in The Netherlands that controls the units is Nederlands Meetinstituut (NMi). You can see more on, or on the official site of the BIPM. In 1960, on the 11 th CGPM, the system was named officially International d'Unité. Because more and more countries were interested in the French system, the Bureau International des Poids et Mesures (BIPM) was founded, nowadays: Conférence Générale des Poids et Mesures (CGPM). Only in 1875 the world was beginning to show some interest in the French development. Multiplying of the units should go in factors of ten (decimals).All units, except the basic units, should be derived from the basis units. ![]()
