How to convert feet (US survey) to kiloparsecs
1 foot (us survey) is equal to 9.87791503 × 10⁻²¹ kiloparsecs, and 1 kiloparsec is equal to 1.012359387 × 10²⁰ feet (US survey). To convert, multiply by the conversion factor:
kiloparsecs = feet (US survey) × 9.87791503 × 10⁻²¹
kiloparsecs = feet (US survey) ÷ 1.012359387 × 10²⁰Example: convert 1 ft (US) to kpc: 1 × 9.87791503 × 10⁻²¹ = 9.87791503 × 10⁻²¹ kpc.

About the foot (us survey)
The US survey foot is exactly 1200/3937 m (about 0.3048006 m), two parts per million longer than the international foot. It was officially retired at the end of 2022 but remains in older land records and state plane coordinates.
