Kilometers

A kilometer (km) is a unit of length in the International System of Units (SI), equal to 0.6214 miles. One kilometer is one thousand meters.

The prefix "kilo-" means one thousand. A kilometer is defined by 1000 times the distance light travels in 1/299,792,458 seconds. This definition may change, but a kilometer will always be one thousand meters.

Kilometers are used to measure distances on land in most countries. However, the United States and the United Kingdom still often use miles. The UK has adopted the metric system, but miles are still used on road signs.

Nautical miles (International)

A nautical mile (international) is a unit of length used in maritime and aviation contexts. One nautical mile is equivalent to 1,852 meters or approximately 1.15078 miles.

The nautical mile is defined based on the Earth's circumference and is equal to one minute of latitude.

Nautical miles are used worldwide for navigation at sea and in the air. They are particularly important for charting courses and distances in maritime and aviation industries, ensuring consistency and accuracy in navigation.
