What is an international nautical mile?

An international nautical mile is a unit of measurement used in navigation and maritime activities. It is defined as exactly 1,852 meters or 1.15078 miles. The term "nautical" refers to its use in the context of sea travel, distinguishing it from the statute mile used on land.

The international nautical mile is based on the circumference of the Earth and is used primarily for measuring distances at sea. It is widely used by sailors, pilots, and navigators to calculate routes, determine positions, and estimate travel times. Due to its standardized length, it allows for accurate and consistent measurements across different regions and countries.

The international nautical mile is divided into smaller units called nautical miles, which are further divided into minutes and seconds. This subdivision allows for precise measurements and calculations in navigation. The use of nautical miles is particularly important in marine charts, GPS systems, and other navigational tools, as it provides a common reference point for sailors and mariners worldwide.

What is a yard?

A yard is a unit of length commonly used in the United States and other countries that have adopted the Imperial system of measurement. It is equal to 3 feet or 36 inches. The yard is primarily used for measuring distances in everyday situations, such as the length of a room or the height of a person. It is also commonly used in sports, particularly in American football, where the field is divided into 100 yards.

The yard is believed to have originated from the length of a person's stride. In medieval times, a yard was defined as the distance from the tip of the nose to the end of the outstretched arm of King Henry I of England. However, the exact length of a yard has varied throughout history and between different countries. It wasn't until 1959 that the yard was officially defined as 0.9144 meters by international agreement.

While the yard is still widely used in the United States, many other countries have adopted the metric system and use the meter as their primary unit of length. However, the yard is still used in some specialized fields, such as construction and landscaping, where it is more convenient to work with fractions of a yard rather than decimal fractions of a meter.
