Description
Hooking up to graphhopper for the routing API (and on the metrics of the map itself), everything is showing in meters/kilometers, with no option to be able to change to show miles. Is there a way to get the metrics on the map itself along with routing data from graphhopper to show in imperial instead of metric?

Research direction
Start by tracing where the map metrics are rendered and where routing data from GraphHopper enters the application. Check whether either entry point already handles unit or locale settings, then verify that both map metrics and routing results consistently display imperial units when configured.
