A "kiloyard" is not a commonly used unit of measurement, and it is not part of the International System of Units (SI). In everyday conversation and most scientific contexts, the yard is used as a unit of length in some countries, primarily the United States and the United Kingdom. One yard is equal to 3 feet or 36 inches.
The prefix "kilo-" typically denotes a factor of 1,000. So, a "kiloyard" would theoretically be 1,000 yards. However, this term is not standard in any established system of measurement and is unlikely to be encountered in practical use. If you need to express a length of 1,000 yards, it's more common to simply say "1,000 yards" or "one thousand yards" rather than using the term "kiloyard."
In the United States surveying system, a "link" is a unit of length that is equal to 1/100th of a chain. Each link is approximately 7.92 inches long or about 0.201168 meters. This unit is primarily used in surveying and land measurement in the United States.
Surveyors often use a chain, which is comprised of 100 links, to measure distances in land surveys. The use of links and chains allows for precise measurements of land parcels, boundaries, and property lines.
