How to convert rods (US survey) to parsecs
1 rod (us survey) is equal to 1.62985598 × 10⁻¹⁶ parsecs, and 1 parsec is equal to 6.135511434 × 10¹⁵ rods (US survey). To convert, multiply by the conversion factor:
parsecs = rods (US survey) × 1.62985598 × 10⁻¹⁶
parsecs = rods (US survey) ÷ 6.135511434 × 10¹⁵Example: convert 1 rd (US) to pc: 1 × 1.62985598 × 10⁻¹⁶ = 1.62985598 × 10⁻¹⁶ pc.
