The kilometre (SI symbol: km) is a unit of length in the metric system equal to 1 000 meters (10 3 m). To help compare different orders of magnitude , this section lists lengths between 1 kilometer and 10 kilometers (10 3 and 10 4 meters ).
When the term 'grid square' is used, it can refer to a square with a side length of 10 km (6 mi), 1 km, 100 m (328 ft), 10 m or 1 m, depending on the precision of the coordinates provided. (In some cases, squares adjacent to a Grid Zone Junction (GZJ) are clipped, so polygon is a better descriptor of these areas.)
Each square on the map is 2 cm by 2 cm (4 cm 2) and represents 1 km 2 on the surface of the Earth. For 1:25,000 maps, the grid lines are 4 cm apart. Each square on the map is 4 cm by 4 cm (16 cm 2) and represents 1 km 2 on the surface of the Earth. In each case, the grid lines enclose one square kilometre.

From 1630 to 1718 a millia was 5,564 feet (1,696 metres), making a geographical league of four millias equal 22,256 feet (6,784 m or 3.663 modern nautical miles). But from 1718 through the 1830s the millia was defined as the equivalent of just over 5,210 feet, giving a shorter geographical league of just over 20,842 feet (6,353 m or 3.430 ...
