Conventions used in this table. The units are rated according to a duodecimal system, even if this is not the local custom.

Some countries use the decimal division of the foot. This table assumes the duodecimal divisions only. Where the decimal divisions are required, calculate the duodecimal unit, and divide it decimally. Thus, the Chinese foot is listed as a decimal foot under 36 inches to the metre. The foot is 12/36 metres, but is divided into 10 decifeet and 100 centifeet. If a system is described as decimal inches, the units are the deka-inch, inch, deci-inch etc. Other measures, like aune, ell, fathom and toise are listed in terms of a proportional inch. For example, the entry 1 ell (24 in), as 0.62 metres, means that the quoted figure is the number of inches in the metre, if 24 make the ell of 0.62 metres.

The measures of Paris and London are metrologically important. There are a number of conversion factors for each of these, some used to define supplemental units.

39.35 to 39.43 The historical spread of English feet.
French Measure
36.94 The Royal foot of Paris, widely used by scientists in pre-metric times.

39.370 078 740 2 UI This rates the inch as 0.254 metres. This was legalised as a conversion ratio as early as 1898, but has since become the definition of the English system in all countries - hence the designation Uniform International.
