About these units
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.
Mile (US Survey) (mi (US))
The US Survey Mile equals 5,280 US Survey Feet (~1,609.347 meters). Slightly longer than the international mile due to the use of the US survey foot, it has been essential for mapping, transportation planning, and geodetic calculations in the United States. Surveyors and engineers relied on the US survey mile to ensure precise alignment of property boundaries, railroad tracks, and infrastructure projects. Over long distances, even small differences between the US survey and international mile can accumulate significantly, necessitating care in measurement. Though the international mile is now standard, the US survey mile remains important for interpreting historical maps, legal descriptions, and older engineering plans.
