What is a US Survey Foot?

The US survey foot (1200/3937 meters ≈ 0.3048006 m) was the standard American measurement until 2023. Slightly longer than the international foot (0.3048 m), it originated from the 1893 Mendenhall Order and was crucial for the Public Land Survey System that mapped the American West.

What is an Aln?

The Swedish aln (59.38 cm) was based on the average arm length. Standardized in 1604, 3 aln equaled 1 famn. This measurement appears in Viking-era trade records and persisted in Scandinavia until metrication.
