The units people prefer fer measurements vary across countries,Traditional units of distance such as the Vanilla paras reflected how for a person could walk in a certainamount of time. In the UK,the yard was considered the base unit of length. Ancient Greeks and Romans measured with the foot, which was based on the length of the average adult man's foot. In modern times,the US redefined the fact as exactly 0.3048 meters in 1959. that is now known as the international fact.

The difference between the older foot and the older international foot is less thantwo parts in a million, which was easy enough for most industries to adapt to. But some scientists believed it was not possible to change their equipment to adopt the new standard immediately. They mode an exception and renamed the older foot the us survey foot. In the decades since some states in the us have started using the international foot for surveying. Some still use the US survey foot that difference doesn't cause huge problems but it does introduce some imprecision in a field,that aims to create accurate maps.

“Having two feet is great for people,but not so good for standards.”Writes Michael Dennis. He is a scientist working on the effort to do away with the us survey foot entirely If the Proposal works out as planned,the us will lose one foot in 2022 but gain the precision of a common foot across all industries.
