Common Length Conversions Metric Length Conversions Unit Definition (bicron) The Bicron is an obsolete metric unit of distance, which was defined as 10e-12 meter or 10e-6 micron. This distance is now called a picometer or picometre (pm). The name is a reference to the double prefix "micro-micron". Unit Definition (cana (canna, canne)) The caña (canna, canne) are traditional units of distance in Spain, Italy, and southern France, respectively. The caña varied in size, but it was most often defined as 8 palmos, which makes it the Mediterranean version of the fathom, equal to roughly 2 meters or 6.5 feet. In Italy a measuring stick is still called a canna metrica. The unit is sometimes translated to "rod" in English, but "fathom" is the proper choice.
