Unit conversion reference
Convert meters to feet, inches, centimeters, millimeters and kilometers with a live converter and common-value table.
The live converter uses the same standard factor system as MAXScanner’s full Length Converter.
Length conversion uses standard metric and customary conversion factors.
The meter is the SI base unit of length. Metric length units such as millimeters, centimeters and kilometers are defined as powers of ten relative to the meter.
To convert meters, multiply the meter value by the factor for the target unit.
These values are calculated from the same factors shown above, so the table is a quick reference rather than a separate set of rounded constants.

Type the number of meters you have.
Pick the unit required by the drawing, form, specification or calculation.
Use the factor or common-value table when you need to double-check the conversion.
The meter is the SI base unit of length. Metric length units such as millimeters, centimeters and kilometers are defined as powers of ten relative to the meter.
To convert meters, multiply the meter value by the factor for the target unit.
Yes. Use the live Length Converter on this page for any supported source and target unit, or open the full converter for the complete unit list.
Open the full Length Converter for every supported unit in this family. Unit conversion changes how the same measurement is expressed; it does not change the underlying physical quantity.
