What Is This Tool?

This converter allows users to transform length measurements from the foot (US survey) to the link (US survey), both historical units used primarily in U.S. land surveying and mapping. It is designed to assist in interpreting and converting legacy survey data accurately.

How to Use This Tool?

  • Enter the value in foot (US survey) you want to convert
  • Select foot (US survey) as the input unit and link (US survey) as the output unit
  • Click the convert button to get the equivalent length in links (US survey)
  • Use the results to assist with land surveying, cadastral, or engineering tasks involving historic units

Key Features

  • Converts from foot (US survey) to link (US survey) with a precise conversion rate
  • Supports applications in land surveying, cadastral mapping, and civil engineering
  • Browser-based and easy to use with no installation required
  • Includes practical examples for quick understanding
  • Ideal for maintaining consistency with older survey records

Examples

  • 5 ft (US survey) converts to approximately 7.575757576 li (US survey)
  • 10 ft (US survey) converts to approximately 15.151515152 li (US survey)

Common Use Cases

  • Specifying property boundaries and cadastral survey measurements in the United States
  • Interpreting or converting distances recorded in historic US land survey plats and deeds
  • Cadastral mapping and boundary description with legacy survey data
  • Civil engineering or land-transfer projects requiring matching of modern and older survey measurements
  • Reporting coordinates consistent with the legacy State Plane Coordinate System

Tips & Best Practices

  • Ensure you are using the correct legacy unit system to avoid discrepancies
  • Double-check conversions when reconciling older survey data with modern measurements
  • Use this conversion for precise interpretation of land survey and cadastral records
  • Verify unit definitions to maintain consistency within legal or engineering contexts

Limitations

  • Foot (US survey) and link (US survey) differ slightly from international units, which may lead to minor inconsistencies
  • Historical definitions affect precision, so caution is needed to avoid errors
  • Not suitable for direct conversion to modern metric units without consideration of legacy usage
  • Best used for interpreting legacy US survey data rather than contemporary measurements
