The importance of spectroradiometry in the research and development on discharge lamps is outlined. The developments in highpressure discharge lamps have stimulated improvements in spectroradiometry, particularly in the area of data-logging where methods applicable to any type of spectrum have been developed. Methods of testing precision are discussed, but assessing accuracy still requires well organised intercomparison experiments.
