What does one cubic kilometer represent?

One cubic kilometer represents the volume of a cube with sides of one kilometer and equals 1×10^9 cubic meters or 1×10^12 liters.

What is a ton register used for?

Ton register is a unit historically used to express the internal capacity of a ship as gross or net register tonnage, aiding in maritime commercial and regulatory measures.

Why is ton register considered a historical unit?

Ton register has been largely replaced by more modern tonnage measures defined in international conventions such as the 1969 Tonnage Convention.
