What do we mean by calibration?

The act or process of calibrating or the state of being calibrated. noun

A gradation that shows a position or value, as on a measuring instrument. noun

A set of such gradations. noun

The act or process of calibrating, especially of ascertaining the caliber of a thermometer-tube, with the view of graduating it to a scale of degrees, or, if graduated, of discovering and measuring any errors due to inequality in the bore; also, the determination of the true values of the divisions of any graduated scale. noun

The process of estimating the caliber a tube, as of a thermometer tube, in order to graduate it to a scale of degrees; also, more generally, the determination of the true value of the spaces in any graduated instrument. noun

The act of calibrating something. noun

The act of checking or adjusting (by comparison with a standard) the accuracy of a measuring instrument noun

The act of calibrating something.

1. The proccess of data acquisition (obtained by comparison against standards) able to anticipate the behavior of someting. 2. The data so obtained. 3. The final report or documentation showing such data. 4. The stage in which someting is regarding the level of its calibration knoledge. Urban Dictionary

1) The process of comparing an instrument's output signal with reality. Instruments that measure solar energy tend to "drift", that is, their output signals do not mean the same thing from one time period to another. Because of this, they are periodically (annually or semi-annually) re-calibrated against more reliable instruments. 2) Adjusting a measuring instrument to make it accurate. The set of operations which establish, under specified conditions, the relationship between values indicated by a measuring instrument or measuring system and the corresponding values of a quantity realized by a reference standard. 3) The act of adjusting the color of one device relative to another, such as a monitor to a printer, or a scanner to a film recorder. Or, it may be the process of adjusting the color of one device to some established standard. Urban Dictionary
