Meter
The meter is the base unit of length in the International System of Units (SI). It is the length of the path travelled by light in a vacuum in 1/299,792,458 of a second.
History/Origin
The meter was originally defined in 1793 as one ten-millionth of the distance from the equator to the North Pole. This changed in 1889, when the international prototype meter was established as the length of a prototype meter bar, made of an alloy of platinum and iridium. In 1960, the meter was redefined in terms of a certain number of wavelengths of a certain emission line of krypton-86.
Current Use
The meter is used worldwide in many applications such as science, engineering, and trade. The United States is one of the few countries in which the meter is not widely used in everyday life and trade.
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.
