(Figured out the simplest way to describe Skyrim's unit system. Moved conversion formulae to the top. Added info on Havok units. Removed the incorrect image: it may be a classic, but it's also completely wrong past the 128-unit mark.)

* The game's measurement system is scaled so that 128 world units is equal to 6 feet.
* The game's measurement system is scaled so that 128 world units is equal to 6 feet.
* Havok collision data, meanwhile, uses meters as its unit of measurement.
* An exterior cell is 4096 by 4096 world units across, or 192 by 192 feet across.
** Heightmapped terrain within a single cell is 32 by 32 vertices across.
* Havok collision data uses meters as its unit of measurement.


The conversion formulae:
The conversion formulae:


* Game units to Havok units: ''hk'' × 69.99125
* Havok units to game units: ''hk'' × 69.99125 = ''wu''
* Game units to feet: ''wu'' × 0.046875
* Game units to feet: ''wu'' × 0.046875 = ''ft''


This table aims to give an approximation, though the numbers are much less precise then their significant digits may imply.
