Square Rod (US Survey)


A square rod (US survey) is a unit of area based on the US survey foot and rod, used primarily in land surveying in the United States.



  • 1 US survey rod = 16.5 US survey feet (exactly 16.5 feet)



  • 1 square rod (US survey) = 16.5 ft × 16.5 ft = 272.25 square feet ≈ 25.2929 m²



The US survey square rod is slightly different in exact length than the international measurement due to the foot definition but is essentially used the same way for land measurement.



Square Kilometer [km²]


A square kilometer (km²) is a unit of area equal to a square that is 1 kilometer on each side. It is commonly used to measure large areas such as cities, countries, or large land plots.

1 km² = 1,000,000 m².
