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.

About Square Micrometers

A square micrometer (μm²), also called a square micron, equals one trillionth of a square meter - the area of a square with sides one millionth of a meter (10⁻¹² m²). This is the natural scale of biological cells: a human red blood cell has a surface area of about 135 μm², and a typical bacterium might occupy 2-10 μm². Square micrometers are the standard unit in cell biology, histology, microscopy, and semiconductor characterisation where individual features on wafers are measured.
