Sumario:The measurement of the integrated luminosity delivered to the CMS Experiment during the 2016 LHC proton-proton run at a center-of-mass energy of $13~\mathrm{TeV}$ is presented. The Pixel Cluster Counting method is used and the absolute luminosity scale calibration is derived from an analysis of Van der Meer Scans performed in May 2016. The overall uncertainty of the luminosity measurement is estimated to be $2.5\%$.
