  • the region of use (usually a country)
  • any regional restriction (such as a state, region, or city)
  • the quantity that the unit describes (e.g. capacity)
  • if the unit is a capacity, whether it is dry, liquid, or both

  • the precision of the factor (e.g. 6 digits)
  • the definition units (e.g. meter3)
