Rod (rd) to Kilometer (km) Conversion

The Rod (or pole/perch) was historically used in land surveying and agriculture. Measuring exactly 16.5 feet, rods were commonly used to define property boundaries. A standard American football field is 320 rods long (including end zones). This unit still appears in some property deeds and agricultural measurements. The Kilometer (km) is used for longer distances like city-to-city travel (e.g., 50 km), marathon races (42.195 km), or highway spans (e.g., 100 km). It's also used in aviation and sports like cycling.
