What is Chain ?

A Chain is a unit of length used primarily in land surveying and historical measurement systems. It is equal to 66 feet or 22 yards, which is approximately 20.1168 meters.

Historically, chains were used to measure and demarcate land for purposes such as mapping, property boundaries, and construction. They were laid out in a straight line and used alongside other surveying tools to create accurate maps and plans.

In modern times, while the use of chains has diminished with the adoption of metric and standard measurement systems, the term "chain" persists in certain contexts, especially in older land deeds and historical documents. It remains a reminder of traditional surveying methods and the importance of precise measurements in land management and development.


What is Furlong ?

A Furlong is a unit of length traditionally used in farming and horse racing. It measures 220 yards or 660 feet, which is equivalent to approximately 201.17 meters or 0.125 miles.

Historically, a furlong represented the length of a plowed furrow in an English field, and it was a standard unit of measure in agricultural communities. Today, it is still used in some countries, particularly in the context of horse racing where races are often measured in furlongs.

In simpler terms, a furlong is about the length of two football fields placed end to end. It's a useful measurement for understanding distances over shorter ranges, such as on a racetrack or in historical land surveys. While less commonly used in everyday life compared to metric or imperial units, the furlong remains relevant in certain niche applications and cultural contexts.
