Convert Earth's distance from sun to rod (US survey)
Please provide values below to convert Earth's distance from sun [AU_dist] to rod (US survey) [rd (US)], or Convert rod (US survey) to Earth's distance from sun.
1 AU_dist = 29745798835.8 rd (US). To convert Earth's distance from sun to rod (US survey), multiply the value by 29745798835.8; to go the other way, divide by it (1 rd (US) = 3.3618e-11 AU_dist). Both units measure length and appear in everyday as well as technical calculations, so switching between them quickly is often useful.
Quick Reference
- 1 AU_dist = 29745798835.8 rd (US)
- 1 rd (US) = 3.3618e-11 AU_dist
- 10 AU_dist = 297457988358 rd (US)

Earth's Distance From Sun
The Earth's distance from the Sun varies throughout the year. The average distance is defined as one astronomical unit (AU), which is about 149.6 million kilometers.
History/Origin
The measurement of the Earth-Sun distance has a long history, with early estimates made by ancient Greek astronomers. Modern measurements are highly precise.
Current Use
The Earth-Sun distance is a fundamental unit in astronomy and is used to measure distances within the solar system.
Rod (Us Survey)
A U.S. survey rod is a unit of length equal to 16.5 U.S. survey feet.
History/Origin
The U.S. survey rod is based on the U.S. survey foot, which was slightly different from the international foot. The use of survey units was officially phased out in 2022.
Current Use
The U.S. survey rod was used for land surveying in the United States.
