The rod or pole or perch is a surveyor's tool and unit of length equal to ?5 1⁄2 yards, 16?1⁄2 feet, ?1⁄320 of a statute mile or one-fourth of a surveyor's chain and 5.0292 meters. The rod is useful as a unit of length because whole number multiples of it can form one acre of square measure. - Wikipedia
