package tech.uom.seshat

Implementation of Units of Measurement API defined by JSR 385. This package provides:

• The Units class with static constants for about 50 units of measurement including:
  • all the SI base units (metre, kilogram second, ampere, kelvin, mole and candela),
  • some derived units (square metre, cubic metre, metres per second, hertz, pascal, newton, joule, watt, tesla, etc.),
  • and some dimensionless units (radian, steradian, pixel, unity).
• Quantities as a double value value associated to a Unit instance.
• Parsers and formatters (UnitFormat and QuantityFormat).

Seshat supports arithmetic operations on units and on quantities. The unit (including SI prefix) and the quantity type resulting from those arithmetic operations are automatically inferred. See the module summary page for code examples.

Class	Description
Quantities	Provides static methods working on Quantity instances.
QuantityFormat	Parses and formats numbers with units of measurement.
UnitFormat	Parses and formats units of measurement as SI symbols, URI in OGC namespace or other symbols.
UnitFormat.Style	Identify whether unit formatting uses ASCII symbols, Unicode symbols or full localized names.
Units	Provides constants for various Units of Measurement together with static methods working on Unit instances.
UnitServices	The central point from which all unit services (parsing, formatting, listing, etc) can be obtained.
