What is Colorimetry?

Answer

Colorimetry is a measurement science which describes a color as the average (non-color blind) individual experiences it. A colorimetric notation includes three numbers, or coordinates, which are used to locate a color in a specific model of color space, and serves as its address or description. It is a description of a color as the average, or Standard Observer, experiences it.
