NetBox v3.0.0 will introduce kilometer and mile as unit choices (#5806), as well as support for decimal values (#6154). Together, these should solve your issue.

I'd like to store the value as 50641ft vs 9.59 miles. Our equipment only records distance measurements in feet. The ability to store decimal values may help, but kilometer and mile choices will not.
