About this conversion

The meter (m) is a unit of length in the metric (SI), commonly used for room and building dimensions and swimming pool lengths. The nautical mile (nmi) belongs to the nautical / aviation and is typically found in measurements related to maritime navigation and aviation route planning. By definition, one meter is the base unit of length in the International System of Units, defined as the distance light travels in 1/299,792,458 of a second. One nautical mile is exactly 1,852 meters, corresponding to one minute of arc of latitude. The conversion factor between these two units is 0.0005399568034557236: multiplying any value in m by this number gives the equivalent in nmi. For example, 10 m equals 0.0054 nmi. Going the other direction, 1 nmi equals 1852 m. The meter was originally defined in 1793 as one ten-millionth of the distance from the equator to the North Pole.
