About these units
Inch (US Survey) (in (US))
The US Survey Inch is derived from the US survey foot, making it exactly 1/12 of the US survey foot (~2.540006 cm). It is used in precise surveying applications where small differences can accumulate over large distances. Historically, it ensured consistency in cadastral maps, railroad engineering, and construction projects, especially when reconciling legacy measurements with modern geodetic data. Though seldom used outside surveying, the US survey inch highlights the need for consistency and precision in civil engineering and mapping applications.
Nautical League (Int) (nl (int))
The international nautical league is defined as 3 international nautical miles, or 5,556 meters. It simplifies the expression of moderately large maritime distances by grouping nautical miles into a more manageable larger unit. Because nautical miles relate directly to Earth's geometry, the nautical league also maintains a connection to latitude and longitude. While not widely used in modern navigation—pilots and mariners typically stick to nautical miles and knots—nautical leagues still appear in older literature, historical accounts of sea voyages, and some naval traditions. They offer narrative convenience when describing long journeys without resorting to extremely large numbers. The unit highlights the tendency of sailors to create practical, scaled units that simplify communication during long-distance travel.
