What is a gallon (UK)?

A gallon (UK), also known as the imperial gallon, is a unit of volume equal to exactly 4.54609 litres, used primarily in engineering contexts where imperial units are standard.

What does acre-foot (US survey) measure?

An acre-foot (US survey) represents the volume of water covering one acre of land to a depth of one US survey foot, commonly used in water management.

Why convert from gallon (UK) to acre-foot (US survey)?

Users convert to translate smaller liquid volumes into larger volumetric scales useful for managing reservoirs, irrigation, and municipal water planning.
