5 History of INPL and the Metre Convention - established in 1950 as a national metrology institute (NMI) by analogy with National Physical Laboratory in UK; - representing Israel since 1985 at BIPM and other forums of the Member States of the Metre Convention (MC); - signed in 2003 the Mutual Recognition Arrangement of National Measurement Standards and of Calibration and Measurement Certificates Issued by NMIs (drawn up by the CIPM under the authority given to it in the MC); - accepted in 2004 by EUROMET as a corresponding NMI.

6 Logo Logo The following ideas are used in the logo: 1) the known metrological “pyramid” with increased uncertainty to the bottom (from a measurement standard to the field measurements); the pyramid illustrating traceability chains, built in opposite to uncertainty direction (from a field measurement to the standards); such two triangles form the David’s Shield – the historical symbol of Jewish people; 2) white and blue colors are the colors of the Israeli flag.
