What is a US Nautical Mile?

A US nautical mile is a unit of measurement used primarily in navigation and marine activities. It is defined as exactly 1,852 meters or approximately 6,076.12 feet. The term "nautical mile" originated from the need for sailors to measure distances on the Earth's surface while taking into account the curvature of the Earth.

The US nautical mile is based on the international nautical mile, which was established in 1929 by the International Hydrographic Organization (IHO). The IHO defined the nautical mile as one minute of latitude along any meridian. Since the Earth is not a perfect sphere, the length of a nautical mile varies slightly depending on the latitude. However, for practical purposes, the US nautical mile is considered a fixed value.

The US nautical mile is commonly used in marine charts, navigation systems, and aviation. It provides a convenient and standardized way to measure distances at sea, ensuring accurate calculations for ship and aircraft navigation. Additionally, it is used in the calculation of speed over water, known as knots, where one knot is equal to one nautical mile per hour.

What is an inch?

An inch is a length unit normally used in the United States and, occasionally, in the United Kingdom. It is defined as a twelth (1/12th) of a foot. The inch is normally subdivided into fractions of an inch such as the ½, ¼ and ⅛.

Historically, an inch was originally based on the width of a man's thumb. The inch is still commonly used in the United States for everyday measurements and worldwide for the size of TV and computer screens and clothing.

Inches are used in combination with other units of imperial measurement such as feet and yards. For example, a standard door in the United States a football field is 100 yards long or 300 feet or 3,600 inches.
