I believe the key term here is "measure coalgebra" or "measuring 
coalgebra".  There's an nLab page on this:

http://ncatlab.org/nlab/show/measure+coalgebra

It doesn't give any references, and I don't know any.  But presumably the 
authors of that page are reading this and have a better idea than me.

André Joyal also mentioned this enrichment in his talk at CT11.

Best wishes,
Tom
