 =====Motivation for this Recommendation: =====
-[shortened from below]
+To be able to identify the exact instrument or sensor, data has been obtained with, is crucial to be able to define what exactly has beeb measuered, repeat an experiment or measure, as well as to evaluate the precision and reliability of a measurement. Nevertheless this information is not recorded in a standard way in most cases.
+We therefore recommend to assign PIDs to all instruments, sensors or other devices producing measurements, whether they are in laboratories, on field stations, platforms, like ships or airplanes, or other places. The process to register PIDs may be subject to the disciplinary culture, however, it may be connected to the acquisition of the instrument or device, as well as to the operation, e.g. in electronic lab notebooks (ELN) or other protocol tools.
