Unit of Measure conversion tool

The conversion factors and unit symbols are based on the Energistics UOM 1.0: https://www.energistics.org/energistics-unit-of-measure-standard/ extended with few extra unit aliases and “unitless” special unit that cannot be converted.

The units are case sensitives.

Install

pip install uom

Examples

Please find a few examples of possible utilization:

Find conversion factors to be applied to convert from one unit to another

from uom import conversion_factors

scale, offset = conversion_factors(source='m', target='ft')

Convert a value from one unit to another

from uom import convert_value

print(convert(value=10, source='m', target='ft'))

Return the base (SI) unit and if you are using unit alias you can find the equivalent Energistics UOM symbol

from uom import base_unit, unit_alias

print(base_unit('kft.lbf'))
print(unit_alias('kft.lbf'))
