The How Do You Measure It? website received a Communicator Award of Distinction in the General-Science and Technology category and the General-Government category.

The Award of Distinction is presented to projects that exceed industry standards in quality and achievement.

The site is a fun look at how we measure a variety of topics, from the depth of the ocean to the nutrients in your cereal to the thrust of a rocket. The site provides answers to questions that will help the public better understand how our modern world works — and why good measurements play an important role in their life.
