(I had sent this message to this list before, but it got lost somewhere)

The ISO 15926 reference data ontology is available at the following SPARQL endpoint:

This endpoint accepts SPARQL queries.
If you open that address with a web browser it gets redirected to a search screen, where you can query the ontology.

It is also possible to open a SPARQL query screen at this address:

http://rdl.rdlfacade.org/data?info=&search=&sparql=

In this screen, if you issue the following query it will show (the first 100 of over 2000) units of measurements (Entity Data Type 'Scale' in the ISO 15926-2 data model):
-----------------------------------------
PREFIX rdf: <http://www.w3.org/1999/02/22-rdf-syntax-ns#>
PREFIX dm: <http://dm.rdlfacade.org/data#>
SELECT ?s ?p ?o
WHERE 
  { ?s ?p ?o .
    ?s rdf:type dm:Scale .
  }
OFFSET 0
LIMIT 100
