| Convert from tunnland to square chain [Gunter, survey] |
Unit Definition (tunnland) The tunnland is a traditional unit of land area in Sweden. The tunnland is equal to 56 000 square Stockholm feet (kvadratfot); this is equivalent to 4936.4 square meters, 0.493 64 hectare, or about 1.220 English acre. The tunnland was divided into 32 kappland. Like the Danish tønde land (see above), this unit originated as the area that could be planted with one tunn (barrel) of seed. Unit Definition (square chain [Gunter, survey]) The square chain [Gunter, survey] is a traditional unit of area in English surveying, defined to be the area of a square whose side equals Gunter's chain (4 rods or 22 yards). Thus the square chain equals 16 square rods, 484 square yards, 4356 square feet, or exactly 0.1 acre.
