# TEMPERATURE

Shedmate, the platform that processes the measurements, recognises all the temperature values provided as degrees Celsius (°C) and performs internal conversions as required.

1 °C (degree Celsius) remains as 1 °C, as it is the base unit.

With these conversions, all temperature measurements will be in the base unit, degree Celsius (°C), facilitating consistency in calculations and comparisons.

```
GET https://shedmate.gitbook.io/shedmate-help/setting-up-shedmate/costing-database-and-pricing-calculations/variables/functions-with-units/temperature.md?ask=<question>
```

The question should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
