1 nautical mile = 1.1508 statute miles or 1.852 kilometers.
The nautical mile has its roots in the very shape of our planet. Based on Earth's longitude and latitude coordinates, 1 nautical mile corresponds to one minute of latitude. One minute of latitude is about 1.1 miles (1.8 kilometers) and one second of latitude covers about 105 feet (32 meters).
Nautical miles are used to measure the distance traveled through the water. A nautical mile is slightly longer than a mile on land, equaling 1.1508 land-measured (or statute) miles. The nautical mile is based on the Earth's longitude and latitude coordinates, with one nautical mile equaling one minute of latitude.
1 mile is equal to 1.609344 kilometers.
If you were to cut the Earth in half at the equator, you could pick up one of the halves and look at the equator as a circle. You then divide that circle into 360 degrees, and a degree into 60 minutes. A minute of arc on planet Earth is 1 nautical mile. It turns out to be about 6,000 feet.
Evolution of the 12 Nautical Mile Rule
This limit was formally adopted as an international standard in 1958 with the Geneva Convention on the Territorial Sea and the Contiguous Zone. Currently, the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea supports this rule, and it has been ratified by more than 150 nations.
The fastest cruise ship in service today is Cunard's Queen Mary 2, with a reported top speed of 30 knots, or 34.5 mph.
Nautical miles are used for measuring the distance travelled through the water. A nautical mile is a little longer than a mile on land. The difference arises as the earth is not a perfect sphere and is slightly flattened at the poles. A nautical mile is based on the earth's longitudes and latitudes.
A nautical unit of length that, when converted into familiar land measurements, equates to 1.15078 land miles or 1.852 kilometres. The nautical mile is longer than a regular mile as it is based on the Earth's coordinates of longitude and latitude, with one nautical mile equal to one minute of latitude.
We know that 1 kilometer is approximately equal to 0.62137119 miles. Therefore, 2 kilometers to miles is 1.24274238.
