What Is This Tool?

This tool converts area measurements from arpents, a historical French land unit, to townships, a cadastral unit widely used in the U.S. Public Land Survey System for legal and land planning purposes.

How to Use This Tool?

  • Enter the area value in arpents you wish to convert.
  • Select 'arpent' as the input unit and 'township' as the output unit.
  • Click convert to see the equivalent area expressed in townships.

Key Features

  • Converts historical French units (arpent) to U.S. cadastral units (township).
  • Ideal for interpreting old land grants and modern surveying integration.
  • Browser-based and easy to use for land record conversions.
  • Supports legal, cadastral mapping, and land administration applications.

Examples

  • 10 arpents equals 0.000366678 townships.
  • 1000 arpents equals 0.0366678 townships.

Common Use Cases

  • Decoding parcel sizes from colonial land grants in Québec and Louisiana.
  • Translating historical French land records for modern survey and GIS projects.
  • Using township data for cadastral mapping and land administration in the U.S.
  • Assisting rural planning and resource inventory through standardized land units.

Tips & Best Practices

  • Verify historical region specifics as arpent sizes may vary.
  • Use conversions for large-scale land analysis due to township size.
  • Cross-check converted data with modern cadastral maps for accuracy.
  • Combine this tool with GIS software for advanced land record integration.

Limitations

  • Arpent size varies regionally and historically, affecting exact equivalence.
  • Townships cover large areas, so this conversion is less accurate for small parcels.
  • Differences in surveying standards between old and modern systems may impact precision.
