7、omareas less than 0.5 mm in diameter may be affected by opticalcoherence,so measurements on such small areas are excludedfrom consideration in this practice,although the basic conceptsdescribed in this practice have been adopted in that field ofmeasurement.1.4 The specification of a method of measur
