Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
It is our great pleasure to announce that Metrology (ISSN 2673-8244) has received its first Impact Factor of 1.5, as published in the 2025 Edition of Journal Citation Reports® (Clarivate), released in June 2025.
To celebrate this wonderful achievement, we are launching this Special Issue to publish top-quality papers from Editorial Board Members and leading researchers who have been invited to submit their work by the Editorial Team. Papers could be both feature-length research papers and review papers describing the current state of the art in one of the subject areas covered by the journal. All papers will be published in open access and free of charge.
If you are interested in publishing your work in this Special Issue, please contact us or the Editorial Office.
