I don't know how you'd measure after it went through a crimp-tool.

I've always called them "DC plugs" so folk know what I am talking about.

Sharp calipers are okay for both.

Measure the OD with vernier, dial, or digital calipers.
 
For the ID, find a matching plug, and measure the OD of the mating
center pin. That's also the ID of the receptacle. If the receptacle
has a center pin, just measure its OD with the calipers.
 
Round off your measurements to agree with a list of typical connector
sizes.

If your measurements do not match anything in the tables, you did
something wrong. Try again.

Standards are a good thing. Every company should have some.
