Introduction to Surface Topography

This chapter introduces the field of surface topography measurement. The basic concepts of surface topography measurement and characterisation are discussed, including a short historical overview. The differences between surface profile and areal surface characterisation are presented along with the concepts of software measurement standards. Finally, the current international standards infrastructure and potential future direction for standards are highlighted.
