A "link" is a unit of length that is equivalent to 1/100th of a chain. In the United States customary system of measurement, one link is equal to 7.92 inches or 0.201168 meters. It is primarily used in surveying and land measurement.
Links are often used in conjunction with other surveying units like chains and rods to measure distances on land, especially for large plots or parcels of land. The term "link" is rarely used in everyday conversation or modern applications outside of surveying and related fields. Instead, more common units like feet, yards, or meters are used for measuring length in most contexts.
Decimeter (dm): The decimeter is equal to one-tenth of a meter (0.1 meters). It is used less frequently than other metric units but can be encountered in certain applications.
