About Converting Terameters to Links
Terameter and Link both measure length. Specifically: Terameter is 1000000000000 meter units, and a surveyor's link is 1/100 of a chain.
Formula
links = terameters × 4.97097e+12
This factor comes from each unit's defined relationship to the category's base unit: 1 terameter equals 1e+12 base units, and 1 link equals 0.201168 base units, so dividing one by the other gives the direct terameter-to-link factor of 4.97097e+12.
Simple example
1 Tm × 4.97097e+12 = 4.97097e+12 li
1 terameter = 4.97097e+12 links.
Real-world example
10 Tm × 4.97097e+12 = 4.97097e+13 li
10 terameters = 4.97097e+13 links.
