A statute mile is used as the imperial measurement primarily in the USA and UK for land based distances. The statue mile equates to 1609.3 metres to one decimal place. The nautical mile, as the name suggests, is the predominant unit of measurement in the maritime world e.g. sea travel, air travel. The nautical mile equates to exactly 1852 metres. Thus, 1 nautical mile = 1.1508 statute miles

How much distance does 1 second of latitude equal?
One second of latitude equals 100.39 feet . . .here is the proof:one degree = 60 Nautical Miles or 69 Statute miles; (conversion factor 69/60 = 1.15)one minute minute = 1 Nautical Mileone second = 1 Nautical Mile / by 60 seconds = 0.01666 of a Nautical Mileuse conversion factor of 1.15 x 0.01666 = 0.019159 x a Statute Mile -->equals (5420 ft X 0.019159) = 100.39 feet per second of latitudeRead more: How_much_distance_on_the_earth's_surface_does_one_second_of_latitude_equals
