                values from that column. SI prefixes will be used where appropriate. 
             Column units are configured in the metadata like so: 
             [[[cog
metadata_example(cog, {
    ""databases"": {
        ""database1"": {
            ""tables"": {

                    ""units"": {
                        ""column1"": ""metres"",
                        ""column2"": ""Hz""
                    }

}) 
             ]]] 
             [[[end]]] 
             Units are interpreted using  Pint , and you can see the full list of available units in
                Pint's  unit registry . You can also add  custom units  to the metadata, which will be
                registered with Pint: 
             [[[cog
metadata_example(cog, {
    ""custom_units"": [
        ""decibel = [] = dB""
    ]
})
