About Dunam
A dunam (also dönüm or donum) is a unit of land area equal to exactly 1,000 m², used across Turkey, Israel, Palestine, Jordan, Lebanon, Iraq, and former Ottoman Empire territories. One dunam equals one stremma and one decare. The modern metric dunam of 1,000 m² was standardised during the British Mandate period; older Ottoman dunams varied by region (approximately 919-1,600 m²). It remains the primary land measurement unit for agricultural and property records throughout the Middle East, with properties routinely listed in dunams in Israeli and Palestinian real estate.
About Townships
A township (twp) is a large survey unit used in the US Public Land Survey System, defined as a square with sides of 6 statute miles, giving exactly 36 square miles or approximately 93,240,000 m². Each township is subdivided into 36 one-square-mile sections of 640 acres each. The Township and Range system is how most US land west of Ohio was divided and sold; township numbers and names still appear in legal land descriptions, county records, and geographic placenames across the American Midwest and West.
