Developed in partnership with COMET Program/MetEd, "Two Right Feet? U.S. Survey Feet vs. International Survey Feet" explains the difference between the U.S. survey foot (sFT) and the international survey foot (iFT) and the importance of this distinction when working with map projections. It will be helpful to surveyors, planners, and anyone who needs to convert map coordinates from meters to feet. For more information on geodetic datums, visit http://www.geodesy.noaa.gov/.
