Abstract: The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) uses Measurement Assurance Programs (MAPs) to provide NASA calibration laboratories with a method to compare and improve accuracy, but MAPs meet other needs as well, such as eliminating excessive turn-around times in obtaining traceability to national standards and ensuring NASA calibration laboratories use appropriate techniques and equipment. In 1991, the NASA Metrology and Calibration Working Group initiated a MAP in the areas of microwave attenuation and rise time. This paper provides a summary of how the MAP was developed, the results of the first two rounds of measurements, and the conclusions that can be drawn at this point in the program.
