Earth's polar radius

The Earth's polar radius is the distance from the Earth's center to the poles. One Earth's polar radius is approximately 6,356.8 kilometers or about 3,949.9 miles.

The polar radius is shorter than the equatorial radius due to the Earth's oblate spheroid shape, which results from its rotation causing a bulge at the equator and a flattening at the poles.

The Earth's polar radius is used in geodesy, cartography, and satellite navigation to accurately describe the Earth's shape and dimensions. It is essential for understanding Earth's gravitational field, polar regions, and measurements related to the planet's overall geometry.

Hectameters

A hectometer (hm) is a unit of length in the International System of Units (SI). One hectometer is equivalent to 100 meters or approximately 328.084 feet.

The hectometer is defined as one hundred meters, providing a measurement for larger distances that are not as extensive as kilometers.

Hectometers are used in various fields, including land measurement and environmental science, to describe distances and areas on a scale larger than meters but smaller than kilometers.
