Abstract
This proposed paper delves into the challenges within the metrology sector and proposes innovative solutions employing cutting-edge technologies such as AI and Big Data. The aim is to establish an AI-enabled National Digital Grid for Metrology in the context of India. In our modern digital landscape, technologies like Big Data, AIoT (AI + IoT), Cloud Computing, and Blockchain significantly influence individuals, objects, and global economies. Metrology, as the scientific study of measurement, is not exempt from these technological impacts and encounters numerous challenges in its digital evolution. As an essential component for international trade, the development of its digital quality infrastructure is imperative, prompting discussions on the numerous challenges faced in this realm. The paper explores key findings and contributions concerning the digital transformation of metrology and its significance for the sector's advancement.
