The first length measurement system was made by the Cressilcale; the race that made most of the scientific breakthroughs in Sorrven, then later the Helvorr made a system that is more convenient and simple to use.

Helvorr length measurements:
4 Tlen: 1 inch
48 Tlen= 1 foot
1 Ychakk= 3 inches
4 Ychakk= 1 foot
1 Jhokel= 2 feet
1 1/2 Jhokel= 1 yard
1 Kroxport= 48 feet
1 Kroxport= 16 yards
110 Kroxport= 1 mile

12 Tlen= 1 Ychakk
8 Ychakk= 1 Jhokel
24 Jhokel= 1 Kroxport

Nice, very developed to make your own measurement system.
I will be thinking about that while I go use my 48 tlen and go walk 110 Kroxport. ;)
