Area Units Explained

Metric Units

Square meters (m²) are the SI base unit. 1 hectare = 10,000 m². 1 km² = 1,000,000 m² = 100 hectares. Used globally for scientific, agricultural and urban planning contexts.

Imperial Units

1 acre = 43,560 ft² = 4,047 m². 1 square mile = 640 acres. Square feet dominate US real estate; acres are used for land parcels. 1 ft² = 144 in².

Indian Units

Bigha varies by state (1,000–3,000 m²). Gunta = 1/40 acre ≈ 101 m². Cent = 1/100 acre. Marla = 1/160 acre. Kanal = 20 Marlas ≈ 506 m². Dismil = 1 Cent in Eastern India.

Conversion Method

All units are stored as their value in m². To convert A → B: result = (value × A_in_m²) ÷ B_in_m². This single-pivot approach gives exact conversions for any unit pair without chaining.
