Feet (US survey) A foot (US survey) is a unit of length used in land surveying and mapping in the United States. One foot (US survey) is defined as exactly 1200/3937 meters, which is approximately 0.3048006096 meters or about 0.3048 meters.
The US survey foot is slightly different from the international foot, which is defined as exactly 0.3048 meters. The difference is due to historical measurement standards and is used in specific contexts such as land surveying and engineering in the United States.
US survey feet are used primarily in the United States for property measurement, land surveying, and mapping, ensuring consistency in measurements within these fields.
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.
