What Is This Tool?

This converter allows you to change length units from the UK nautical mile, also known as the Admiralty nautical mile, into the US survey inch. It is especially useful for interpreting historical navigation data and reconciling legacy measurement units used in maritime and surveying contexts.

How to Use This Tool?

  • Enter the value in nautical miles (UK) that you want to convert.
  • Select 'Nautical mile (UK) [NM (UK)]' as the input unit and 'Inch (US survey) [in]' as the output unit.
  • Click convert to get the result displayed instantly.

Key Features

  • Converts UK nautical miles to US survey inches with exact conversion rates.
  • Supports analysis of historical maritime charts and legacy surveying records.
  • Helps align older measurements with modern unit standards.
  • Browser-based tool requiring no installation.

Examples

  • 1 NM (UK) equals 72,959.85408 inches (US survey).
  • 0.5 NM (UK) equals 36,479.92704 inches (US survey).

Common Use Cases

  • Interpreting distances from historical UK Admiralty navigation charts.
  • Revising and converting legacy maritime or legal records to metric units.
  • Aligning older maritime and surveying instruments or datasets with current measurement systems.
  • Processing historical US cadastral and geodetic survey documents.

Tips & Best Practices

  • Verify which nautical mile definition applies when comparing distances.
  • Use the tool to reconcile legacy UK maritime data with US surveying units carefully.
  • Be aware of potential discrepancies due to legacy units being superseded in modern applications.

Limitations

  • The UK nautical mile is slightly longer than the international nautical mile, which can affect comparisons.
  • The US survey inch is a legacy unit replaced in many fields by the international inch, possibly causing conversion inconsistencies.
  • Rounding and precision issues may arise when converting very large or very small lengths from historical datasets.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the UK nautical mile (NM (UK))?
The UK nautical mile, historically called the Admiralty nautical mile, is defined as exactly 6,080 feet or 1,853.184 metres, slightly longer than the international nautical mile.

What is the US survey inch?
The US survey inch is a legacy surveying unit defined as exactly 100/3937 metres, equal to 1/12 of the US survey foot, formerly used in U.S. geodetic and cadastral surveys.

Why convert between NM (UK) and US survey inches?
This conversion helps reconcile historical maritime distances with older American surveying units, ensuring accurate interpretation and alignment with modern measurements.

Key Terminology
