What Is This Tool?

This tool allows users to convert length values from the historic English unit called the link [li] to the US survey fathom [fath], a unit used primarily in nautical and hydrographic contexts. It helps reconcile and interpret measurements across historical land surveying and maritime data.

How to Use This Tool?

  • Enter the length value in links [li] that you want to convert.
  • Select the target unit as fathom (US survey) [fath] from the unit options.
  • Click the convert button to view the equivalent length in fathoms.

Key Features

  • Converts historic link units used in land surveying to US survey fathoms used in nautical measurements.
  • Simple and browser-based, accessible without installation.
  • Supports legacy data interpretation for cadastral and hydrographic surveys.

Examples

  • 10 Links [li] equals 1.0999978 Fathoms [fath].
  • 50 Links [li] converts to 5.499989 Fathoms [fath].

Common Use Cases

  • Surveying land using historical records involving Gunter's chain measurements.
  • Analyzing and converting old cadastral and property boundary documents.
  • Measuring water depths and cable lengths in historical or legacy maritime surveys.
  • Reconciling legacy survey data with modern metric or international foot units.

Tips & Best Practices

  • Ensure you understand the context of the historic link unit when converting for land surveys.
  • Account for subtle differences between US survey fathom and the international fathom in precision-critical applications.
  • Use this tool primarily for interpreting and converting legacy or historical measurement data.

Limitations

  • The link unit is historical and rarely used in current measurements, so conversions mostly apply to legacy data.
  • The US survey fathom is not identical to the international fathom, which may cause slight discrepancies.
  • Conversions between survey units and modern metric or international foot units require care due to definition differences.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a link [li] unit used for?
The link is a historic English unit of length used in surveying, mainly in 18th–19th century land measurement and cadastral records.

How does the US survey fathom differ from the international fathom?
The US survey fathom equals exactly 6 US survey feet and varies slightly from the international fathom, affecting some precision needs.

Why convert from link to fathom (US survey)?
Converting from link to fathom (US survey) helps interpret historical land measurements in relation to nautical lengths used in hydrographic and maritime data.

Key Terminology

Link [li]
A historic English unit of length in surveying, equal to 1/100 of Gunter's chain and approximately 0.201168 metres.
Fathom (US survey) [fath]
A US survey unit of length equal to 6 US survey feet, used mainly in nautical and hydrographic measurement.
Gunter's chain
A historic surveying chain divided into 100 links, historically used in English land measurement.
