Convert Earth's equatorial radius to link (US survey)
Please provide values below to convert Earth's equatorial radius [R_e] to link (US survey) [li (US)], or Convert link (US survey) to Earth's equatorial radius.
1 R_e = 31705461.3303 li (US). To convert Earth's equatorial radius to link (US survey), multiply the value by 31705461.3303; to go the other way, divide by it (1 li (US) = 3.15403075067e-08 R_e). Both units measure length and appear in everyday as well as technical calculations, so switching between them quickly is often useful.

Earth's Equatorial Radius
The Earth's equatorial radius is the distance from the center of the Earth to the equator, approximately 6,378.1 kilometers.
History/Origin
The size and shape of the Earth have been a subject of study since ancient times. Modern measurements are made using satellite geodesy.
Current Use
The Earth's equatorial radius is a fundamental parameter in geodesy, geophysics, and astronomy. It is used in cartography and for defining the shape of the Earth.
Link (Us Survey)
A U.S. survey link is a unit of length equal to 1/100 of a U.S. survey chain.
History/Origin
The U.S. survey link is based on the U.S. survey foot. The use of survey units was officially phased out in 2022.
Current Use
The U.S. survey link was used for land surveying in the United States.
