Chains

A chain is a unit of length used primarily in land surveying and agriculture. One chain is equivalent to 66 feet or approximately 20.1168 meters.

The chain is defined as 66 feet, which is historically based on the length of a chain used in surveying practices and land measurement.

Chains are commonly used in land surveying for measuring distances, particularly in the United States and the United Kingdom. The unit is useful for tasks such as plotting and dividing land and has historical significance in the development of surveying techniques.

Arpent

An arpent is a historical unit of length used primarily in French-speaking regions and in land measurement. One arpent is approximately equivalent to 192.75 feet or 58.66 meters.

The arpent was used in various regions, including France and the former French colonies, to measure land and property. Its length could vary slightly depending on the specific region and historical context.

Arpents were used in land surveying and agriculture, particularly in historical and regional contexts. Although less common today, the unit provides historical insight into land measurement practices and regional variations in measurement standards.
