Re: Established vocabularies for units in RDF?

Another contender is the Ontology of Units of Measure (OM), developed by 
Wageningen University:

  http://www.wurvoc.org/vocabularies/om-1.8/

Probably not quite as established as QUDT, but still actively maintained. Paper 
about it here (including a section comparing it with QUDT):
