Various scoundrels in front of a metric height chart.
The Imperial standard meter, often shortened to the meter, was an established unit of measurement of length used by the Galactic Empire.[1] One meter equaled 100 centimeters.[2] The meter existed during the Galactic Republic's reign as well.[3]
↑Death Star, chapter 39: "Just last week an automated supply ship plowed into a warehouse on Despayre, destroying the ship entirely and half the building it hit, because somebody had set the autopilot's deceleration speed to centimeters per second instead of meters. If you impact at a hundred times the velocity you're supposed to, it makes something of a difference."
