Sistem warna Munsell

Dalam kolorimetri, sistem warna Munsell adalah sebuah ruang warna yang membagi warna berdasarkan pada tiga dimensi warna: nama warna, nilai (pencahayaan), dan intensitas. Sistem ini dibuat oleh Profesor Albert H. Munsell pada dekade pertama abad ke-20 dan diadopsi oleh USDA sebagai sistem warna resmi untuk penelitian tanah pada 1930-an.

Sebelum data Munsell distandardisasikan, nama-nama warna diberikan berdasarkan warna alamiah yang dimilikinya, misalnya, warna hijau avokad untuk menunjukkan warna hijau yang menyerupai warna buah avokad.
