A unit of measurement is a definite magnitude of a quality, defined and adopted by convention or by law, that is used as a standard for measurement of the same kind of quantity. Any other quantity of that kind can be expressed as a multiple of the unit of measurement. For example, a length is a physical quantity. Numerous units of measurement have been used throughout international history in science, mathematics, and other studies.

## Area

* 1 Klorium meter = 55% larger than standard meter - Cahira once had to quickly redesign a dining hall onboard the chamber to political specifications after someone mistranslated a measurement system using Klorium meters.
* 1 kife - A kife used to measure Klaytonian distance.

## Mass

* 1 microgram
* 1 milligram
* 1 carat
* 1 pound

## Speed

* 1 kilometer per hour (km/h)

A physical unit of speed or velocity, expressing the number of kilometers traveled in one hour. Kilometers per hour were often used to express the speed of vehicles, such as skyracers, speeder bikes, cars, and even skyfighters. Fast ground-based vehicles had a maximum speed of 500 km/h. Skyracers, which were designed for high-speed races, had higher maximum speeds. Young Telekinibabe's skyracer had a maximum speed of 988 km/h.

* 1 mile per hour (mph)

Another physical unit of speed or velocity.

## Volume

* 1 pint
* 1 cubic kilometer (km3)

## Gravity

* 1 g-force
* 1G

## Artillery rankings

* 1 megatome
* Df
* v-

## Shield strength

* 1 SBD
* 1 watt (shield dissipation)

## Energy

* 1 Energy Unit, approximately the energy required to power a single shot from a standard gun
* 1 Power Unit, possibly equal or close to an Energy Unit

## Musical units

* Key, as in "Key of Q"
* Octave

## Quantities

* Imperial crans, used to measure amounts of food.

## Trivia

* As the primary form of measurement, the metric system also applies to quantities as well, beyond the standard SI prefix. See Large Numbers for more details.
* While a gleep is a Tridii unit of measure, it is implied to be the British "small unit" along the lines of a centimeter or an inch: "...while two Alliance soldiers examined every square *gleep* of the shuttle."
