Description
@danieldeidda and I were discussing possibilities for adding units (Bq/ml,...) to images (and other data). There's a no std::units sadly. Here's a few links. I haven't checked them properly:
- http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_55_0/doc/html/boost_units.html
- https://www.codeproject.com/Articles/1088293/Units-and-measures-for-Cplusplus with some motivation why it's better than
boost::units - https://github.com/LLNL/units with a whole list of other units libraries in the README
We'd need something small, Apache 2.0 compatible, and ideally with some conversion between strings and units.
