The archetype “Physical dimensions” previous called “Physical properties” is now ready for publication.
We have split out different types of physical properties into separate CLUSTER archetypes:
- Physical dimensions (size related measurements of an object or in situ thing (this archetype))
- Weight (mass of an object) (not yet designed)
- Later we can add temperature (replacing the current draft OBSERVATION)
There may be future use cases for other physical properties like density, pressure, etc. We haven’t decided how we’ll handle these when the use cases pop up.
The CLUSTER.specimen_measurements.v1 will be deprecated and replaced with this archetype and a new archetype for weight.
If you have any comments or objections, please make a Change Request or start a discussion in the archetype in the CKM in due time for planned publication on the 27.06.2025.
Kind regards on behalf of the editors,
Liv Laugen
