# 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.
