Q: What factor is used to convert meters to feet?
A:
There are 2 different values for the relationship of the meter/foot that can be used, the appropriate conversion depends on which state you're in: 1 m = 3.28083333333333 U.S. Survey Feet The attached map shows which states have legislated a specific foot
conversion value and which have not. I find that in those states that have
not legislated a specific value the de facto standard seems to be
U.S. Survey Feet. Regardless of which value you use you should make sure
that you indicate the conversion in whatever products your survey produces.
1 m = 3.28083989501312 International Feet
