Pressure
kilopascal (kPa)  0.0099 atmosphere, standard (atm)
kilopascal (kPa)  0.01 bar
kilopascal (kPa)  0.296 inch of mercury at 60ºF (in Hg)
kilopascal (kPa)  0.145 pound-force per square inch (lbf/in2)
kilopascal (kPa) 20.89 pound per square foot (lb/ft2)
Length
centimeter (cm)  0.3937 inch (in.)
millimeter (mm)  0.03937 inch (in.)
meter (m)  3.281 foot (ft)
kilometer (km)  0.6214 mile (mi)
kilometer (km)  0.5400 mile, nautical (nmi)
meter (m)  1.094 yard (yd)

 

Temperature in degrees Celsius (°C) may be converted to degrees Fahrenheit (°F) as follows:
     °F=(1.8×°C)+32
The SI unit for pressure is the pascal (Pa). 1 Pa = 0.0001 decibar (dbar) = 0.001 kilopascal (kPa).
Vertical coordinate information is referenced to North American Vertical Datum of 1988 (NAVD88).
Horizontal coordinate information is referenced to North American Datum of 1983 (NAD83).
Elevation, as used in this report refers, to distance above the vertical datum.
