Centimetre/cm: One hundredth of a metre, i.e., 1000mm ÷ 100 = ten millimetres/ 10mm/1cm. Note that although centimetres and metres seem to be the main metric division learnt by schoolchildren, the engineering and construction industries (at least) work in millimetres and metres.
Automated driving technologies

A key issue is not just what the car sees, but what it knows beforehand about the area it is travelling through. High-definition 3D maps are, therefore, an essential element for the navigation and safety of these vehicles. Accuracy down to a centimetre is needed.

There are variations in the style of writing and presentation of these records in different institutes; hence this function includes Measure standardization – It uses for standardization of all measures like centimeters or millimeters.Value standardization – It performs value standardization. For example, the high-grade values can be given as ‘grade 3’, ‘Grade-III’, ‘GR 3rd’ in the records. This function standardizes these values.Numeric representation – This function gives numeric. To get ER or PR status, the numeric has to extract. For example, ER or PR scores can be represented in distinct form like ‘0/8’, ‘0 of 8’, ‘zero out of 8’, ‘zero out of eight’, ‘0 out of eight’.
Geographical variation in energy yields of rooftop photovoltaic projects in Australia

The results demonstrate that the newly developed measurement has the capacity to achieve centimetre-level accuracy. The resulting energy yield contour maps for BIPV products and daily changes in the energy generation of solar PV systems illustrate the different temporal and spatial revenue distributions of rooftop PV projects in different geographical locations in Australia, which shows the possible investment return rates of constructing solar PV projects for households living in different cities. In particular, installing solar collectors on a north-facing roof may slightly reduce electrical energy yields in Darwin. This paper has therefore suggested a policy adjustment. In addition, the proposed energy yield contour maps illustrate that the positions and geometric shapes of the optimum ranges for installing solar collectors are very similar on rooftops with a change in geolocation in Australia.
