What Is This Tool?

This converter transforms area values from square kilometers, a standard metric unit for large land areas, into arpent, a historical French unit once commonly used in regions like France, Québec, and Louisiana.

How to Use This Tool?

  • Enter the area value in square kilometers into the input field.
  • Select 'square kilometer [km²]' as the starting unit.
  • Choose 'arpent' as the target unit for conversion.
  • Click the convert button to display the result in arpent.

Key Features

  • Converts area from square kilometers to arpent based on established conversion rates.
  • Supports understanding of both modern and historical land measurement units.
  • Browser-based tool accessible without downloads or installations.
  • Useful for land surveying, GIS mapping, and historical land record analysis.

Examples

  • 2 km² converts to approximately 584.98 arpent.
  • 0.5 km² converts to approximately 146.25 arpent.

Common Use Cases

  • Translating modern land measurements into historical French units for legal or historical analysis.
  • Interpreting colonial land grants and cadastral maps from Québec and Louisiana.
  • Facilitating environmental and land use studies involving legacy land area data.

Tips & Best Practices

  • Always consider the regional variation of the arpent unit for more accurate interpretations.
  • Use this conversion for approximate historical analysis rather than precise modern land measurement.
  • Cross-check results with historical records when working on legal or cadastral documents.

Limitations

  • The arpent unit size changes regionally, leading to variability in exact conversions.
  • Modern use of arpent is mainly for heritage and historical study, not precise contemporary measurement.
  • Approximate conversion may introduce small inaccuracies in detailed land surveys.
