Geometric and specification data are unit system dependent. For example, say project A is a metric driven project, which uses metric units like meters, and project B is an imperial driven project, which uses imperial units like inches. To allow both projects to use the same material (idents), the unit systems must be defined and assigned to the geometrics, specifications, and so forth. Furthermore, the unit systems must be assigned to the appropriate units. The most common unit systems are METRIC and IMPERIAL.
