What Is This Tool?

This tool allows users to convert distances measured in meters to the US survey fathom, a unit commonly used in maritime and hydrographic fields to measure water depths and line lengths.

How to Use This Tool?

  • Enter the length value in meters you want to convert
  • Select the source unit as meter [m] and target unit as fathom (US survey) [fath]
  • Click the convert button to view the equivalent measurement in fathoms
  • Refer to provided examples for accuracy and understanding

Key Features

  • Converts meters to US survey fathoms with a specific conversion rate
  • Designed for users working with maritime, hydrographic, and nautical data
  • Simple, browser-based interface for quick conversions
  • Supports legacy data reconciliation involving US survey units
  • Provides clear conversion examples for better understanding

Examples

  • 5 Meters converts to approximately 2.734028 Fathoms (US survey)
  • 10 Meters converts to approximately 5.4680556 Fathoms (US survey)

Common Use Cases

  • Measuring and reporting water depths in maritime navigation and hydrographic surveys
  • Specifying lengths of anchors, mooring lines, and sounding lines in nautical settings
  • Converting legacy survey data from metric to US survey fathoms to reconcile historical measurements

Tips & Best Practices

  • Double-check unit selections before conversion to ensure accuracy
  • Use this converter when working specifically with US survey fathoms, not international fathoms
  • Cross-reference converted values when dealing with precision-critical maritime or engineering data

Limitations

  • The US survey fathom is slightly different from the international fathom, so conversions between these units require caution
  • Being a non-SI unit, the US survey fathom is less commonly used and may introduce rounding errors
  • Verify units carefully in precision-sensitive conversions to avoid discrepancies

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a US survey fathom used for?
It is primarily used in nautical and hydrographic fields for measuring water depths and line lengths, especially in legacy surveying and maritime operations.

How many US survey fathoms equal one meter?
One meter equals approximately 0.5468055556 US survey fathoms.

Why should I be careful when converting between US survey fathoms and international fathoms?
Because the US survey fathom slightly differs from the international fathom, conversions between these units might lead to inaccuracies.

Key Terminology

Meter [m]
The SI base unit of length, defined by the distance light travels in vacuum during 1/299,792,458 of a second.
Fathom (US survey) [fath]
A non-SI unit of length equal to 6 US survey feet, used chiefly in nautical and hydrographic settings to measure depths and line lengths.
Conversion Rate
The factor used to convert a measurement from one unit to another, in this case, 1 meter equals approximately 0.5468055556 US survey fathoms.
