Traceable measurements provide results in terms of known references and with a quantified uncertainty. We will present an overview of SI-traceability, its benefits, and with particular attention to seismometry. We will consider the various contributors to the uncertainty of a measurement, and contrast primary and secondary measurements. Following this, we will outline ongoing work at NIST that is relevant to seismic measurements.
