What Is This Tool?

This converter transforms area measurements from the historical French unit called arpent into the metric unit called are (symbol a). It helps users interpret older land measurements and apply them in modern contexts like surveying and property records.

How to Use This Tool?

  • Enter the area value in arpents you wish to convert.
  • Select arpent as the original unit and are [a] as the target unit.
  • Click convert to see the equivalent area in are units.

Key Features

  • Converts historical arpent values into metric are units.
  • Supports use in cadastral, agricultural, and GIS applications.
  • Based on widely accepted average conversion rate.
  • Browser-based and easy to use for accurate land measurement translation.

Examples

  • 2 arpents equal 68.3778584734 are [a].
  • 0.5 arpent converts to 17.09446461835 are [a].

Common Use Cases

  • Translating historical land documents in Québec and Louisiana.
  • Interpreting cadastral maps and property deeds from colonial times.
  • Converting old land records for modern surveying and GIS mapping.
  • Supporting agricultural planning for small fields and orchards.

Tips & Best Practices

  • Use this tool to bridge old French land measure units with modern metric standards.
  • Be aware that historical arpent sizes varied, so conversion results are approximate averages.
  • Apply converted values carefully when reconciling historical and current land records.
  • Combine with other GIS or surveying data for comprehensive land management.

Limitations

  • The arpent size differed regionally, so conversion uses a standard average value.
  • Minor inaccuracies may arise from historical record discrepancies.
  • Are units are less commonly used globally compared to hectares or square meters.
