The scientist who used mathematical knowledge to calculate the exact measurement of the meter was Pierre-Simon Laplace. In the late 18th century, he helped define the meter based on the Earth's meridian, specifically by measuring the arc of a meridian between Dunkirk, France, and Barcelona, Spain. This effort was part of a larger scientific endeavor to create a universal system of measurement, which ultimately led to the establishment of the metric system.
