Info about "Sea mile"

The sea mile or nautical mile is a unit of length frequently used in shipping and aviation. It was originally intended to measure 1/60 degree of latitude. Later, the nautical mile was defined accurately as 1,852.0 m.

The nautical mile is used as a unit of length in maritime navigation in an unified international way, unlike measuring distances on land, which uses two different units of length depending on the region, namely kilometer and mile.

Info about "Fathom"

The fathom or thread is defined as the distance between the outstretched arms of an adult male and was defined as 6 feet (1.8288 meters).

The name is derived from the Old English word "fæðm" , which is related to the Danish word "favn". Its meaning is the same as "outstretched arms". In English speaking navigation, the fathom is often used as a unit of length to indicate depth.
