Usage

This template displays length (or height, it is aliased as {{Unit height}}) measurement units used within various Category:Geobox templates, automatically converting between metric/imperial values. The input must be unformatted numeric values (i.e. without commas, the commas are automatically added to output).

It can display and convert following units:

• m to ft (metres to feet) and vice-versa
• km to mi (kilometres to miles) and vice-versa
• mm to in (milimetres to inches) and vice-versa

The template has 3 unnamed parameters: {{Unit area| unit| value| round}}. Their meaning is as follows:

1. unit … unit (m, ft, km, mi, mm, in) of the value parameter, it will get displayed first
2. value … numerical value
3. round … number of decimal digits (negative numbers can be used for rounded figures); if not specified 0 is assumed

Examples

• {{Unit length||1000}}:
• {{Unit length|m|1000}}: 1,000 m (3,281 ft)
• {{Unit length|m|1000|-2}}: 1,000 m (3,300 ft)
• {{Unit length|mi|1000|3}}: 1,000 mi (1,609.344 km)
