What Is This Tool?

This tool converts area values from township, a cadastral unit representing 36 square miles, to square mil [mil^2], an imperial unit used to measure extremely small areas such as those in electronics and manufacturing.

How to Use This Tool?

  • Enter the area value in townships that you wish to convert.
  • Select township as the input unit and square mil [mil^2] as the output unit.
  • Click the convert button to see the corresponding area in square mil [mil^2].

Key Features

  • Converts large land areas in townships to very small area units in square mil [mil^2].
  • Supports precise translation of cadastral and legal land descriptions into microscale measurements.
  • Browser-based for easy and accessible use without installation.

Examples

  • 2 Townships = 2 × 144,521,625,600,000,000 = 289,043,251,200,000,000 Square mil [mil^2]
  • 0.5 Township = 0.5 × 144,521,625,600,000,000 = 72,260,812,800,000,000 Square mil [mil^2]

Common Use Cases

  • Translating large cadastral land measurements into very small units used in electronics design.
  • Supporting material science research involving land survey data at microscale dimensions.
  • Enabling precise area measurement conversion for PCB copper trace and thin-film coatings.

Tips & Best Practices

  • Understand that township measures large land parcels, while square mil applies to tiny areas; conversions will yield very large numbers.
  • Use this conversion primarily for contexts where cross-scale unit comparison is necessary, such as scientific or engineering fields.
  • Double-check unit selections to avoid confusion with similarly named area units like circular mil.

Limitations

  • Results produce extremely large numbers that may be impractical for everyday land measurement use.
  • Square mil is designed for minuscule areas and is rarely practical for large land areas except in specialized contexts.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a township in area measurement?
A township is a cadastral unit in the U.S. Public Land Survey System representing a 6-mile by 6-mile square, totaling 36 square miles.

What does square mil [mil^2] measure?
Square mil [mil^2] measures a very small area defined by the square of one mil (0.001 inch), commonly used in electronics for small surface areas.

Why convert from township to square mil?
Converting from township to square mil helps translate large land areas into extremely small units for use in electronics design, precision manufacturing, or material science.

Key Terminology

Township
A cadastral land unit in U.S. survey systems equal to a 6-mile by 6-mile square, totaling 36 square miles.
Square mil [mil^2]
An imperial-derived unit representing the area of a square with sides of one mil (0.001 inch), used for very small surface areas.
U.S. Public Land Survey System (PLSS)
A system used to subdivide and legally describe land using units like townships.
